INTRO: Am  G  Am  G 
 
                   Am                         G 
Yes I do come here often, but I don't call it alone 
                       Am                              G 
I've got a house up on Third, but I wouldn't call it a home 
                  Em                            C 
These days I have secrets, but I don't call 'em dreams 
                 Am                              G 
Yes I work every mornin, but I don't call that a life 
                Am                               G 
Yes I once was married, but I wouldn't call me a wife 
                Em                            C 
No I don't mind small talk if it says what it means 
N/C              Am                 G 
So don't call it love, it ain't the same 
           Am                 G 
I ain't no kid, this ain't no game 
            Em                      C 
I'd say the words if the words were enough 
                Am G C       D             G 
You can hold me tonight, but don't call it love  

                  Am                        G 
Yes I've had some heartaches, I've had good times 
                          Am                          G 
Though I wouldn't call it hard luck, the choices were mine 
                       Em                         C 
Thank God there's some music, did I interupt your scene 
                Am                                G 
Do I believe in Heaven, yeah but I don't mean the stars 
                  Am                          G 
I think it's all around us, maybe not in this bar 
               Em                             C 
I'm out on the ocean and the truth is my last line 
N/C               Am                 G 
But don't call it love, it ain't the same 
           Am                 G 
I ain't no kid, this ain't no game 
            Em                      C 
I'd say the words if the words were enough 
                Am G C       D             Am 
You can hold me tonight, but don't call it love  
 
               Em                      C 
Oh I'd say the words if the words were enough 
                Am G C       D             G     C 
You can hold me tonight, but don't call it love 
                 G     C 
No don't call it love 
                 G     C   G 
No don't call it love
