    E                    Am
A friend says that your love
              E
won't mean a lot
                        Am
And you know that your love
              F#m7 B
is all you've got
    G                   Am
At times things are so fine
        G     F#m7    B
and at times they're not
      E                      A
But when she says she loves you,
              E
that means a lot
                      Am
A friend says that a love
           E
is never true

And you know that this
Am             F#m7 B
don't apply on you
    G                Am
A touch can mean so much
          G   F#m7    B
when it's all you've got
E                        A
When she says she loves you
              E
that means a lot

            C#m
Love can be deep inside,
love can be suicide
           E             B
Can't you see you can't hide
          C#m            B
what you feel when it's real
    E                    Am
A friend says that your love
              E
won't mean a lot
                        Am
And you know that your love
              F#m7 B
is all you've got
    G                Am
A touch can mean so much
          G    F#m7   B
when it's all you've got
  E                      A
When she says she loves you
              E C#m
that means a lot
           E    C#m
Can't you see, yeah
           E    C#m
Can't you see, yeah
