   C                 F9    G
Is this your voice I heard
F9
Speakin' my name
   C            F9    G
I hang on every word
     F9           C
Each letter that I write
      F9      G
Every day, every night
      F9                C       F9  G  F9
But I just can't live and learn

C                       F9
Talkin' to myself and believin'
                   G       F9
I could live without you
C                         F9
Livin' on the lies and beleivin' that
            G      F9
Love would stay
C                           F9
Listen to me please and I'm beggin' on
              G
My knees before you
              Dm7
But you don't show me the way
              G               G7
No you don't show me the way

C
He may change you're world and someday
G/B
He may break your heart
    Am
And you deserve no better
       G                F
If you love him I will step aside
  C
I offer this to you
   G/B                        Am
So leave me as I love you still
       Dm7
And if he don't keep you warm
           C    F9  G
You know I will
           C    F9  G  F9
You know I will

   C               F9  G
So this is who you are
        F9
And the rest of my life
  C           F9    G
I dedicate to you
      F9                C
And I know that love can't wait
          F9      G
There's a moon and a sun
      F9              C        F9  G  F9
And a dream that sees me through

  C
A little bit of change and
  F9                G    F9
A little bit of my desire
      C
I was shakin' all over and
  F9                G    F9
I didn't know what to say
    C
I'm the man in the middle and
    F9                G
The middle man catches fire
          Dm7
But baby, go away
          G                G7
Oh baby, go, baby, go away

C
He became your hero somehow
G/B
I became your clown
    Am
And you deserve no better
       G                F
If you love him I will step aside
  C
I offer this to you
   G/B                        Am
So leave me as I love you still
       Dm7
And if he don't take your heart

If he don't take your heart
           C
You know I will

          C
It ain't wise
         C4
It ain't smart
        C                   C4
You say there's no doubt about it
          C
If you decide
         C4         C
You got somebody else
      C4
When I want you to myself
        C
I can't stop
        C4
I can't look
        C              C4
I can't say no more about it
       C              C4
But my love will go on
        C               C4
Just as long as the river flows

C
   Suddenly Someone is crying
Dm7
   Who knows what tomorrow brings so

C
He may change you're world and someday
G/B
He may break your heart
    Am
And you deserve no better
       G                F
If you love him I will step aside
  C

   G/B                        Am
So leave me as I love you still
