Abmaj7
Here I am again, love
                 Gm7                   Fm7
I hope you don't mind, hope you don't mind
                                                  Ebmaj7
'Cause I don't wanna be alone, for the rest of my life
Abmaj7
Tried to hide my sins, now
                     Gm7
But where could they lie?
              Fm7
You're in control, and I can't let go
                  Ebmaj7
I'm here, 'til we die (Ooh, ooh)

       Abmaj7
Mental solitude
           Abmaj7
I remember it was subtle
                  Gm7
You would tell me in the summer
                Gm7
You could never love another (Ooh)
        Fm7
It's no longer true
                Fm7                              Gm7
Now I'm waiting for a phone call, where are you, pride?
                         G7
Are you alive? Is this a sign?

Chorus
            Abmaj7
To get over you-ooh-ooh
       Gm7
I love you-ooh-ooh
          Fm7                        Ebmaj7
Why can't you (Why can't you), be in love? (Be in love?)
              Abmaj7
Oh, why can't you-ooh-ooh?
          Gm7
What do I do? (I love you-ooh-ooh)
Gm7 F#m7  Fm7        Ebmaj7
Why can't you, be in love?

Abmaj7                                                 Gm7
And if you were to change your ways for me, I would cry
                    Fm7
'Cause then I would know if we'd still have hope
                     Ebmaj7
And maybe we could survive (Ooh, ooh)
