Capo 2nd Fret
DA
She stepped off the airplane
GD
And we drove straight to my house
A
An hour later we were lying in bed
GD
laughing right out loud
GD
We talked about the old times
GD
and we made love again
BmAG
It'd been so long since my fingers touched her skin
GD
And we were so in love back then
GD
Why didn't we work out
Bm
Hell, I don't know
AG
It don't make sense to me now
D
And she said tell me you love me
A
I love you
D
She said say it again
A
Oh honey I do
D
Then Say like you mean it
AG
Like it's in your heart and you believe it
A
I'm needing to believe it too
Chorus
GD
I loved you when we were innocent
GD
I loved you when we were young
BmG
I loved you when I was working on the beaches in the sun
GD
I loved you in that run down flat
GD
We rented overseas
BmAG
I love you now so powerfully it brings me to my knees
BmAG
And tonight when your hair falls down around my face
DAG
I love you
Verse 2
DA
She got up for a drink
GD
Walked naked across the floor
A
Looked back at me with that playful smile
GD
I wanted her once more
GD
She poured the wine and we drank it
GD
She laid back down on the bed
BmA
Then she curled up against me and said if you want me
G
You're gonna have to tell me again I said...
Chorus
GD
And the next day at the airport
GD
I held her close
BmAG
and I hated like hell to let her go
DAG
but as I did, I quietly said
Chorus (3)
GD
I loved you when we were breaking up
GD
When the truth was hard to see
BmAG
I love you now so powerfully it still brings me to my knees
BmAG
and last night when your hair fell down around my face
DAG
I love you
Hope this is close. If anyone can improve it, I'll look forward to seeing it
