[Ab] We fell [Ebm] in love
[Bbm] on the first [Ab] night that we met
[B] [Ab] Together we've been happy, [Bbm] I have very few regrets
[G] The ordinary [C] problems have [Fm] not been odd to face
[Bbm] But lately little [Eb] changes have [Ebm] been slowly taking [Ab] place
[F] You're always [Bbm] finding something [Db] is [Gb] wrong in what [Db] I do
[Fm] But you can't [Bbm] rearrange my [Ebm] life because it pleases you
[Ab] You've got [Db] to love me [C] for [Ab] what I [Bbm] am, for simply being me
[Ebm] Don't love me for what you intend, [Ab] or hope that I will be
[Fm] And if you're only using me [Cm] to feed your [F] fallacy
[Bbm] You're really not in love, so [Eb] let [Ebm] me go
[Ab] I must [Db] be free
[Gb]
[Db] If what [Gb] you want [Ab] isn't natural for me
I won't pretend to keep you, [Bbm] what I am I have to be
The [G] picture of perfection [C]
[Fm] is only in your mind
[Bbm] For all your [Eb] expectations love [Ebm] can never be [Ab] designed
[F] We either take [Bbm] each other for [Gb] everything we [Db] are
[Fm] Or leave the life [Bbm] we've made behind [Ebm] and make [Ab] another start
[Ebm] [Ab] You've got [Db] to love me [Fm] for what I [Bbm] am, for simply being me
[Ebm] Don't love me for what you intend, [Ab] or hope that I will be
[Fm] And if you're only using me [Cm] to feed your [F] fallacy
[Bbm] You're really not in [Db] love, [Ebm] so let me go
[Bb] I [Ab] must be free
[Db]
[Fm] [Bbm]
And [Ebm]
[Ab]
[Fm] if you're only using me [Cm] to feed your fallacy
[F]
[Bbm] You're really not in [Db] love, so [Ebm] let me go
[Bb] I must [G] be free
[Db]
[F] You're
[Bbm] really not [Eb] in love, [Db] so [Ebm] let me go
