[Intro]
D G D G
[Verse 1]
D G
You've been around for such a long time now;
Em A
Oh maybe I could leave you but I don't know how.
D G
And why should I be lonely every night
Em A
When I can be with you? Oh yes, you make it right.
G A
And I don't listen to the guys who say
D G
That you're bad for me and I should turn you away.
[Chorus]
D G F#m A
'Cause they don't know 'bout us;
G C D
They've never heard of love.
[Verse 2]
G
I get a feeling when I look at you,
Em A
Wherever you go now, I wanna be there too.
D G
They say we're crazy but I just don't care,
Em A
And if they keep on talkin', still they get nowhere.
G A
So I don't mind if they don't understand,
D G
When I look at you when you hold my hand.
[Chorus]
D G F#m A
'Cause they don't know 'bout us;
G C D
They've never heard of love.
[Segue]
Bm C G A
Why should it matter to us if they don't ap-prove?
Bm C G A
We should just take our chances while we've got nothing to lose...
[Interlude]
D G D G
D G A A
Baby!
[Verse 3]
D G
There's no need for living in the past,
Em A
Now I found good loving, gonna make it last.
D G
I tell the others, "Don't bother me,"
Em A
'Cause when they look at you, they don't see what I see.
G A
No, I don't listen to their wasted lines;
D G
Got my eyes wide open and I see the signs.
[Chorus]
D G F#m A
'Cause they don't know 'bout us;
G C D
They've never heard of love.
[Outro]
G A
No, I don't listen to their wasted lines;
D G
Got my eyes wide open and I see the signs.
D G F#m A
'Cause they don't know 'bout us;
G C D
They've never heard of love.
G C D D
