[C] [G] [Am]
[G] [F] [G] [C]
[Em] You know, when I [Am] first started doing this album, I thought, [G] all these songs [F] about just
getting a divorce and [G] there [C] was one thing I wanted to tell you, darling, darling, before
the music stops for me and you, [Em] and that's what you meant to [Am] me.
And even though the divorce is [G] final now, [F] I wanted to [G] sing you this one [C] last love song.
Your presence of [Em] love [Am] means more to [G] me [F] than [G] any love could [C] ever be.
For when I wanted you, [Em] [Am] I wrote so lonely and so [F] blue, for [G] that's what [C] love will do.
And darling, I was so [Em] surprised [Am] when I first realized [F] that you [G] weren't [C] fooling me.
And darling, they say that [Am] our love won't grow [F] old, but I just want to tell them [G] they
[C] don't know.
For as long as you're [Am] in love with me, our [F] love will grow wider, [G] deeper than [C] any sea.
And of all the things, all the [Em] things that I want [Am] in this whole wide world, [G] it's just
[F] for you to say [G] that you'll be [C] my girl.
For wanting [Em] you, [Am] I'm so [G] blue, [F] for [G] that's what love [C] will do.
[G] [Am] I gave it 110 [G]% of [F] my soul, and I [G] tried everything [C] I could to hold it together.
But now that it's over, I [Am] just want you to know that any [F] time you have [G] [C] sunshine, you're
going to have bad weather.
Some people, they can handle [Am] that, and some people can't.
[F] Just for [G] the record, another [C] chapter in my life, and you were the chapter.
Just [Em] divorced.
[Am]
Maybe they should write that on my tombstone, [F] darling.
Would that [G] make you happy then?
[C]
Your precious [Em] love [Am] means more to [G] me [F] than [G] any love, [C] any love could ever be.
For when I wanted [Em] you, I [Am] was so lonely and so [Em] blue, [F] for [G] that's what love [C] will do.
Darling, [Am]
[C] [F] I [G] realized that [C] you were falling deeper.
Your precious, your precious love.
[G] And [Am]
[G] in [F] this whole wide world, it's [G] just for you to say that you'll be, [C] you'll be my girl.
