I want, I want
        Db                              Eb
I would die for you, I would lie for you

I’d give my life to you

And I hope you tell him that

  Driving past your house again
Ab                                     Eb/G
  See your mother and father and your silhouette
Fm         Db
  Is it you in that flower dress?

  Do you remember all the times when I told you I was scared, you’d go away?
          Fm       Eb/G      Ab  Eb/G      Db       Eb
Or the nights we talked and memories are faded to gray?
         Fm          Eb/G      Ab     Eb/G
When you left here’s what you told me
 
[Chorus]

If you love me
Ab       Eb/G
Hold me softly

You’re the only one
   Ab      Eb/G
I want, I want

I would die for you, I would lie for you
      Fm      Eb/G   Ab
I’d give my life to you

If you love me, hold me softly

Those were the words you used to tell me
        Fm      Eb         Db
And I hope you tell him that
        Fm      Eb         Db9   Bbm
Oh, I hope you tell him that
 
[Bridge]
      Fm         Db
And woah, why don’t you see
   Ab                  Eb/G
My love, you’re all I need
     Fm             Db
And woah, you’re the part of me
     Ab                Eb/G
I’ve tried so hard to see
Fm                    Db
Maybe I’ve lost my composure
           Ab                        Eb/G
You’re the one that was holding me together
    Fm                   Db
And maybe this wasn’t forever
  Fm      Eb         Db
I can’t ignore the proof
     Fm      Eb         Db
It hurts me, cause it’s true
      Fm      Eb        Db9
I’m still in love with you
 
[Outro]
          Db                   Eb
I would die for you, I would lie for you
     Fm       Eb/G    Ab
I’d give my life to you
       Fm                 Db
If you love me, hold me softly
               Ab                Eb/G
I tell you this, so you would believe me
       Fm      Eb        Db
I‘m still in love with you
           Fm      Eb        Db9
Yeah I‘m still in love with you
