A#                             D#
You take my hand and smile at me
           A#                F
But I can tell you'd rather be
 D#            F                 A# F
Alone or with somebody else you know
     A#             D#
And when your eyes look into mine
     A#                   F
That old time love light doesn't shine
D#               F                  A#
But let me try again, don't make me go

Chorus:
       D#
I want you, don't make me go
                 A#
My heart would break, I'd miss you so
         F                           A# A#7
Tradin' love for sympathy, is old to me
             D#
What's this lovesick heart to do
          A#
When it cries for only you
          F                                 A#
Hold me close, I love you so, don't make me go

I'm sorry that I never knew
The way to show my love to you
I took too much for granted all the time
Two hearts in love must give and take
When one heart fails the other breaks
So turn me loose cause I cant call you mine
