G                        G#
Just when I'm ready to throw in my hand
A#sus4                                 A#
Just when the best things in life are gone
   G#
I look into your eyes
A#          D#
There's no smoke without fire
A#                   D#
You're exactly who I want to be with
A#  D#
Without you
A#           D# G# A#
What would I do

And when I'm willing to call it a day
Just when I won't take another chance
I hold your hand
There's no smoke without fire
Woman, I love you
Without you
What would I do?
