[Verse 1]
G                      D                        Em
Escaping nights without you with shadows on the wall
                    C                         G
My mind is running wild trying hard not to fall
                      D                            Em
You told me that you love me but say I'm just a friend
                     C
my heart is broken up into pieces
        G                        D
Cos i know I'll never free my soul 
               Em                         C
it's trapped between true love and being alone
                    G                         D
When my eyes are closed the greatest story told
               Em                                 C
I woke and my dreams are shattered here on the floor
 
[Pre-chorus ]
G                    D
Why oh why tell me why not me
Em                    C
Why oh why we were meant to be
          G              D
Baby I know I could be all you need
Em             C
Why oh why oh why
 
[Chorus]
         G
I wanna love you
     D                      Em
if you only knew how much I love you
     C
So why not me
 
 
[VERSE2]
G                D                       Em
The day after tomorrow I'll still be around
                         C                     G
To catch you when you fall and ever let you down
                      D                         Em
you say that we're forever our love will never end
                     C                          G
I've tried to come up but it's drowning me to know
                       D
you'll never feel my soul
                  Em                        C
It's trapped between true love and being alone
 
                   G                        D
when my eyes are closed the greatest story told
                  Em                                C
i woke and my dreams are shattered here on the floor
 
Tell me baby...
 
[Pre-chorus ]
G                            D
Why oh why tell me why not me
Em                           C
Why oh why we were meant to be
        G               D
Baby I know I could be all you need
Em               C
Why oh why oh why
 
[Chorus]
            G
I wanna love you
D                                    Em
if you only knew how much I love you
     C
So why not me
 
[BRIDGE ]
G                D
You won't ever know
Em               C
How far we can go
G                  D
You won't ever know
Em              C
How far we can go (go)
 
[Pre-chorus ] x2
G                              D
Why oh why tell me why not me
Em                                     C
Why oh why we were meant to be
          G                           D
Baby I know I could be all you need
Em                         C
Why oh why oh why
 
 
[Chorus]
            G
I wanna love you
D                                  Em

     C
