Capo on 3rd.
[Intro]
G C D G
[Verse 1]
G D
I don't know how to make lots of money
G D
I got debts that I'm trying to pay
Em C G Em
I can't buy you nice things, like big diamond rings
C D
But that don't mean much anyway
G D
I can't give you the house you've been dreaming
G D
If I could I would build it alone
Em C G Em
I'd be out there all day, just hammering away
C D
To make us a place of our own
[Chorus]
Em C G D
I will write you a song
Em C G D
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong
Em C G D
I will write you a song
Am C G D G
And you'll know from this song that I just can't go on without you
[Interlude]
G C D G
[Verse 2]
G D
I don't know that I'd make a good soldier
G D
I don't believe in being violent and cruel
Em C G Em
I don't know how to fight, but I'll draw blood tonight
C D
If somebody tries hurting you
[Chorus]
Em C G D
I will write you a song
Em C G D
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong
Em C G D
I will write you a song
Am C G D
And you'll know from this song that I just can't go on without you
[Bridge]
C D
Now that it's out on the table (it's out on the table)
C D
Both of us knew all along (knew all along)
C G D
I've got your love and then you've got my song
[Solo]
Em C G D (x3) C G
[Verse 3]
G D
I don't know how to make lots of money
G D
I don't know all the right things to do
Em C G Em
I can't say where we'll go, but the one thing I know
C D
Is how to be a good man to you
C D
Until I die that's what I'll do
[Chorus]
Em C G D
I will write you a song
Em C G D
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong
Em C G D
I will write you a song
Am C G D
And you'll know from this song that I just can't go on without
Em C G D
I will write you a song (I will write you a song)
Em C G D
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong (love is still strong)
Em C G D
I will write you a song
Am C G D G
And you'll know from this song that I just can't go on without you
