[Verse 1]
F G F G
You took all you could
F G
And gave all you had
G C F
Knowing that I would have to under-stand
Am E
As you changed the locks
C F
And threw out my socks
Dm F G
There was peace at hand
F G
You sat in my chair
F G
Your chin on your knees
I'm no longer there
C F
And you look so pleased
[Pre-Chorus]
F G F
I don't think that I know what to say
G
In my heart I love you anyway
[Chorus]
C Asus4 G
I want you to-day
C Asus4 G
I want you to-day
F G
[Verse 2]
F G
How can I score points
F G
And win back your trust
Where our two hearts join
C F
There's a sign of rust
Am E
From the tears you've cried
C F
With the times I've lied
Dm F
To the two of us
[Pre-chorus]
F G
I don't think that I know what to say
G
In my heart I want you anyway
[Chorus]
C Asus4 G
I want you to-day
C Asus4 G
I want you to-day
[Bridge]
E E7 Am F
I can see the road behind me as I walk
G
I can feel the hurt that's burning as I talk
[Chorus]
C Asus4 G
I want you to-day
C Asus4 G
I want you to-day
C Asus4 G
I want you to-day
C Asus4 G
I want you to-day
[Outro]
F G
I can see the kids
F G
As they play outside
I can read their lips
C F
Their eyes open wide
