Listen to the song to get a better idea of how to play it just in case. :) Please post corrections if I'm way off here.

Figured out by Geordan Rosario ([email protected]) with some help from Ben Scott ([email protected]). Ben rewound the CD relentlessly for me. ============================================================================== If I Didn't Love You Squeeze Difford/Tilbrook INTRO: G A G D (2x) A G D A If I didn't love you I'd hate you G D A Watching you play in the bath G D A A soap suds stickle back navy G D F A scrubbing brush landing craft C E F Your skin gets softer and warmer C E F#dim I pat you down with a towel Am F C Tonight it's love by the fire E F#dim My mind goes out on the prowl If I (7x) A G D A If I didn't love you I'd hate you G D A I'm playing your stereogram G D A Singles remind me of kisses G D F Albums remind me of plans C E F Tonight it's love by the fire C E F#dim The wind plays over the coals Am F C Passionate looks are my fancy E F#dim But you turn the look into stone If I (7x) Am If I didn't love you F D/F# (see footnote 1) Would you sit and glow Am by the fire F D/F# If I didn't love you Am F D/F# Would you make me feel so Am F Mad and love me //your guess is as good as mine!

If I (4x) Didn't (4x) Love you (2x) N.C./F# (see footnote 2) Love you Love you ---------- Footnote 1: If played on keyboard, the D must be played D-F#-A. Won't sound right otherwise. Footnote 2: That's right, no chord split F#. i.e., the bassist closes the song with F#.
