C#m         B
No more fighting
C#m        E    C#m  B
No more talking shit
C#m      B    C#m   E      C#m
Do as I say, not as I give up
             B
Not as I've failed to live
C#m     B      C#m             E       C#m
In the future there will be a terrible cost
                    B
For all that we've left undone
C#m      B      C#m       E         C#m
Deliver me from everything I've put off
                    B
And all that we've lost
       F#m
I will always love you
E      B
But I cannot live with you

C#m  B   C#m  E   C#m      B
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
(I will always love you)
C#m  B   C#m  E   C#m      B
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh

No more fighting
I've nothing left to give
I've nothing but atrophy
Did I cross you?
Did I fail to believe in positive thoughts?
Our romantic second chance is dead
I buried it with the hatchet
Quit your antics
Put them at the foot of the bed
And set it on fire
I will always love you
But I cannot look at you

Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
I will always love you
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
I will always love you
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
I will always love you

C#m   E      B
Hold me closely
E        A    E          B
Hold me tightly, lest I fall
A         E    B
Hold me closely
E        A    E          B
Hold me tightly, lest I fall
A        E    B
Hold me closely
E        A    E          B
Hold me tightly, lest I fall
F#m       A   B
Hold me closely
E        A    E          B
Hold me tightly, lest I fall

A         E   B
Hold me closely
E        A    E          B
Hold me tightly, lest I fall
A         E   B
Hold me closely
E        A    E          B
Hold me tightly, lest I fall
(I will always love you)
A         E   B
Hold me closely
E        A    E          B
Hold me tightly, lest I fall
(I will always love you)
A         E   B
Hold me closely
E        A    E          B
Hold me tightly, lest I fall
(I will always love you)
