[Intro] F  Am  Bb  C

F          Am               Bb            C
You got the right to tell me    it's all over
F                      Bb         C
It isn't like me to be    begging you

F        Am            Dm
Don't let go,    don't let go
Bb                     C
Just stay with me    another day

F       Am             Bb                C
When I'm not myself     please understand me
F        Am                 Bb           C
I'm so confused I don't know     what to do

F        Am           Dm
But don't give up,     don't give up
Bb                         C
It just may take a little time

F                 Bb  C
Be tender with me baby
F                    Bb           C
I'm so affraid      you'll go away
F                  Bb  C
Be tender with me baby
   F              Bb  C
Always,     for always

F                             Bb                 C
I know that you've been patient      with my weakness
F                         Bb    C
And that you hate to see me cry
F     Am             Dm
But I know,     yes I know
Bb                       C
I doesn't have to be this way
F       C               Bb   C
But I'm so lonely I could die

F                 Bb  C
Be tender with me baby
F                    Bb           C
I'm so affraid      you'll go away
F                  Bb  C
Be tender with me baby
   F              Bb  C
Always,     for always

Bb                     F
Why does my heart keep hurting
Bb         C                  F
Why do I feel like I do

Bb               F          C       Dm
I hope you see    this is not really me
Gm                             C                 G
That it's just a phase     that I'm going through
