hard for (Bm)me.
And I (D)hate er
to say
(Bm)I want you,
when you (D)make it so clear
you don’t want (Bm)me.
I’d nev er (Bm)ask you, ’cause deep down I’m (A)cer tain I know what you’d (D)say.
You’d say I’m (D)sor ry, be lieve me, I (A)love you but not in that (D)way.
And I’d (D)hate
to say I (Bm)need you,
I’m so re (D)li ant.
I’m so de (F#m)pen dent.
I’m such a (Bm)fool.
When you’re

Can’t bear,

(CN.C.)You

You’d say I’m (D)sor ry, be lieve me, I (A)love you but not in that (D)way.
