My Heart Cant Tell You No

Tom: G

Intro  (G C)

[Verse I]
G        
I don't want you to come round here no more,
                C
I beg you for mercy.
G
You don't know how strong my weakness is
               C
Or how much it hurts me.
                      Em        D
Cause when you say it over with him,
             C                Em
I want to believe it's true.
                             D
So I let you in, knowing tomorrow
            C                   
I'm gonna wake up missing you,
D
Wake up missing you.

[Chorus]
G                 Em                   C            D    
When the one you love's in love with someone else,
G                  Em                  C                D
Don't you know it's torture? I mean it's a living hell.
              Em       D
No matter how I try to convince myself,
            C                       Em
This time I won't lose control.
                               D             C
One look in your blue eyes and suddenly my heart can't tell you no.

[Verse II]
G
I don't want you to call me up no more,
              C
Saying you need me.
G
You're crazy if you think just half your love
             C
Could ever please me.
                  Em          D
Still I want to hold you, touch you
         C                     Em
When you look at me that way.
                             D
There's only one solution I know:
           C
You gotta stay away from me,
D
Stay away from me!

[Chorus]
G                 Em                   C           D    
When the one you love's in love with someone else,
G                  Em                  C                D
Don't you know it's torture? I mean it's a living hell.
              Em       D
No matter how I try to convince myself,
            C                       Em
This time I won't lose control.
                              D           C               
One look in your sad eyes and suddenly my heart can't tell you no.
D
My Heart can't tell you no!
