      E                      B
I don't know how to make lots of money
         E                    B
I got debts that I'm trying to pay
        C#m           A           E           C#m
I can't buy you nice things, like big diamond rings
      A                      B
But that don't mean much anyway
         E                             B
I can't give you the house you've been dreaming
      E                      B
If I could I would build it alone
       C#m           A          E         C#m
I'd be out there all day, just hammering away
A                     B
To make us a place of our own


C#m     A           E       B
I will write you a song
C#m                A            E             B
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong
C#m     A          E       B
I will write you a song
           F#m             A           E            B           E
And you'll know from this song that I just can't go on without you


         E                        B
I don't know that I'd make a good soldier
         E                          B
I don't believe in being violent and cruel
        C#m          A                E          C#m
I don't know how to fight, but I'll draw blood tonight
    A                    B
If somebody tries hurting you


C#m     A           E         B
I will write you a song
C#m                A            E             B
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong
C#m     A          E         B
I will write you a song
           F#m             A           E            B              A
And you'll know from this song that I just can't go on without you


                B                                     A
Now that it's out on the table (it's out on the table)
             B                            A
Both of us knew all along (knew all along)
               E            B             C#m
I've got your love and then you've got my song

        E                        B
I don't know how to make lots of money
        E                           B
I don't know all the right things to do
        C#m             A            E           C#m
I can't say where we'll go, but the one thing I know
    A                      B
Is how to be a good man to you
    A                        B (strong)
Until I die that's what I'll do


C#m     A           E         B
I will write you a song
C#m                A            E              B
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong
C#m      A          E         B
I will write you a song
            F#m            A           E            B (strong)
And you'll know from this song that I just can't go on without...
C#m      A          E          B
I will write you a song (I will write you a song)
C#m                A            E             B
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong (love is still strong)
