D                  G
Days they come and go
D                 G
Years go by the same
D                          A
All we shared was careless words
A7
Keep a watch on the clock
A7
For the little hand to stop
A                                 D
Striking a match just to watch it burn


[Chorus]
                G
I don't want to lose this love
           D
Haven't we lost enough
             A
A heart only takes so much
                Bm     G    
Before it falls out of touch
               
I just want to hold you close
                D
I don't want to let it go
          A7                                  Bm  G
I'm gonna love you like I've got something to prove
          A                                   D
I'm gonna love you like I've got something to lose


[Verse 2]
D           G
I can still remember
D                    G
The first time I saw you
D                                  A
You were like a star that fell for me
A7
Let's get back to then
A7
Make it new again
A                                         D
We've got too much right just to turn and leave


[Chorus]
                G
I don't want to lose this love
           D
Haven't we lost enough
             A
A heart only takes so much
                Bm     G
Before it falls out of touch
               
I just want to hold you close
                D
I don't want to let it go
          A7                                  Bm  G
I'm gonna love you like I've got something to prove
          A                                   D
I'm gonna love you like I've got something to lose

Haven't we lost enough

A heart only takes so much

I'm gonna love you like I've got something to lose
