1. Do you love me,                 or are you just extending goodwill?

                    C          G        Am              C                F          Dm       G

    Do you need me half as bad as you say, or are you just feeling guilt?

                    Am            G               F             C          

    I've been burned before and I know the score,

                   F             Dm          G

     so you won't hear me complain.

    When I am in the darkness,        why do you intrude?

                   Am         G                     F            C          

    Do you know my world, do you know my kind,

    F          Dm    G

    or must I explain?

C                G       Am      C        F          G         C           

    Will you let me be myself, or is your love in vain?

 

                       F                 G                         C               Am

    Well, I've been to the mountain and I've been in the wind,

                    F         G                 C

    I've been in and out of happiness.

                 F              G                       C          Am

    I have dined with kings, I've been offered wings,

                    F               Dm      G                

    and I've never been too impressed.

        C      G                  Am          C                      F           Dm          G

    if I'm a fool, you can have the night, you can have the morning, too.

                   Am           G               F            C          

    Can you cook and sew, make flowers grow,
