Capo 4
C G
You wanna talk about devotion
C
You wanna talk about true love
G
After the moment of emotion
C
It’s kinda hard to keep the mood up
F
Well look into my eyes
C
And tell me what you see, darling
G
I’ve forgotten what it was in you
F C
That put the need in me
G
Your arms were like a little paradise
C
But your arms have changed
G
And the flicker of a good love’s fire
C
Has seen brighter days
F
When we’ve said every line
C
And played out every scene
G
I’ve forgotten what it was in you
F C
That put the need in me

Well honey you and I
C
We had the sweetest thing

And we can try and try and try
C
But somethin’ ain’t the same
Dm
Don’t look me in the eye
C
’Cause I’m the one to blame
G
I’ve forgotten what it was in you
F C
That put the need in me
F
Who’d ever thought that I
C
Would have the guts to change
F
We could try to live a lie
C
You’d hate me just the same
Dm
Oh, honey please don’t cry
C
I’m sorry and ashamed
G
But I’ve forgotten what it was in you
F C
That put the need in me
