Capo I



A
I can't help myself

Baby, I've tried and I've tried
      D                      A
But I just don't want nobody else

You did this to me

You lit a fire that's still burning
     D
Down deep in my soul
    E
And now you expect me
        NC
To just let you go


A                 G
Don't hate me for lovin' you
                D
It's all that I know to do
               A
You're my everything
G  D  A               G
Oh oh don't ask me to give you up
                D
I live for your tender touch
               E
Oh don't be so mean
                  A          D
Don't hate me for lovin' you
                  A          D
Don't hate me for lovin' you
                  A  D   G   D   A
Don't hate me for lo-ve, lov-in' you


A
Dreams, you're still in my dreams

Sometimes so real

That I still feel you 
D                        A
Lying right here next to me

I'm so sorry I called

I know it's late 

And the last thing you 
D                   E
Want me to say is I miss you
             NC
A little bit more everyday


A                 G
Don't hate me for lovin' you
                D
It's all that I know to do
               A
You're my everything
G  D  A               G
Oh oh don't ask me to give you up
                D
I live for your tender touch
               E
Oh don't be so mean
                  A          D
Don't hate me for lovin' you
                  A          D
Don't hate me for lovin' you
                  A  D   G   D   A
Don't hate me for lo-ve, lov-in' you
