Introduction:

D G9
Is this your voice I heard
A G9
speaking my name?
D G9
I hang on every word,
A G9 D
each letter that I write,
G9 A
every day, every night,
G9 D
but I just can't live and learn (ooh).
G9 A G9
D G9 A G9
Talking to myself and believing I could live without you.
D G9 A G9
Living on the lies and believing that love would stay.
D G9 A
Listen to me please and I'm begging on my knees before you,
Em7
but you don't show the way,
A7
no, you don't show the way.
D A/C#
He may change your world and someday he may break your heart,
Bm
and you deserve no better.
A G
If you love him I will step aside.
D
I offer this to you.
A/C# Bm
So leave me as I love you still.
Em7
And if he don't keep you warm,
D G9 A
you know I will,
G9 D G9 A G9
you know (ooh).
D G9
So this is who you are,
A G9 D G9
and the rest of my life I dedicate to you.
A G9 D
And I know that love can't wait.
G9 A
There's a moon and a sun
G9 D G9 A G9
and a dream that sees me through (ooh).
D G9 A G9
A little bit of change and a little bit of my desire.
D G9 A G9
I was shaking all over and I didn't know what to say.
D G9 A
I'm the man in the middle and the middle man catches fire.
Em7
But baby, go away.

He became your hero somehow, I become your clown.

And if he don't take your heart, if he don't take your heart,
D
you know I will.
D D4
It ain't wise, it ain't smart.
D D4
You say there's no doubt about it.
D D4
If you decide you got somebody else.
D D4
(when I want you to myself).
D D4
I can't stop, I can't look,
D D4
I can't say no more about it
D D4
but my love will go on
D D4
just as long as the river flows.

Suddenly someone is crying.

Who knows what tomorrow brings so.
