[D]
[G] [E]
[D]
You ask me if [G] I love you, [A] and I choke on my [D] reply.
[F#m] I'd rather hurt [Bm] you honestly [E] than mislead you [A] with a lie.
[D] [A] [Em] And who am I [A] to judge you [D] on what [A] you say [Bm] or do?
[D] [G] I'm only just [D] beginning [Em] to see the [D] real [A] you.
[D] And sometimes when [G] we touch, [A] the honesty's too [F#m] much.
[Bm] And I have to close [E] my eyes [F#m] [B] [A] and hide.
[G] [F#m] [Em] I [D] want to hold you till [G] I die, [A] till we both break down and [D] cry.
I [Em] want to hold you till the [A] fear [G] in me [D]
subsides.
[G]
[Gm] [D]
Romance and all [G] its strategy [D] leaves me battling with my pride.
But [F#m] through the [Bm] insecurities, [E] some tenderness [A] survives.
[Em] I'm just another, [A] [D] still trapped [A] within [Bm] my truth.
[D] [G] A hesitant [D] prize fighter, [Em] still trapped [F#m] within [A] my youth.
[D] And sometimes when [G] we touch, [A] the honesty's too [F#m] much.
And [Bm] I have to close [E] my eyes [F#m] [G#m] [A] and hide.
[G] [F#m]
[Em] I [D] want to hold you till [G] I die, till [A] we both break [F#m] down and cry.
I [Em] want to hold you till the fear [A] in me [D] subsides.
[A] At [G] times I'd like to break you and drive you to [D] your knees.
[Bm] At times I'd like [F#m] to break through [G] and hold you endlessly.
[D] At times I [G] understand you [A] and I know how hard [D] you try.
[F#m] I've watched while [Bm] love commands you and [E] I've watched love [A] pass you by.
[Em] At times I think [A] we're [D] drifters, [A] [D] still searching [C#m] [B] for a friend.
[A] [G] A brother [F#m] or a sister, [F#] but [Em] then the [F#m] passion flares [A] again.
[D] And sometimes when [G] we touch, [A] the honesty's [F#m] too much.
And [Bm] I have to close [E] my eyes [F#m] [E] [A] and hide.
[G] [F#m]
[Em] I [D] want to hold you till [G] I die, till [A] we both break down [F#m] and cry.
