C                   C/B Am
Please, don't steal my heart
              Ab          G
Don't make me start over again
C                  C/B Am
Please, don't hurt my pride
              Ab              G     C
Don't make me hide my loving away, away


[Verse 1]

C                      C/B     Am      Am/G
Lonely, the word rings like a bell
F            G
Tolling from heaven fell
         C
I always wanted to be a lover
            C/B       Am        
But I can't take the pain
  Am/G     F
I won't surrender to any other
         G
Ain't it always the same? Hey


[Pre Chorus]

C
How can I ever know what love can truly be?
Am                                Am/G
I want to live alone inside my fantasies
F                                     G
Why can't I turn away? I'm under your persuasion


[Chorus]

C                   C/B Am
Please, don't steal my heart
              Ab          G
Don't make me start over again
C                 C/B Am
Please, don't hurt my pride
              Ab              G     C
Don't make me hide my loving away, away

[Verse 2]

C                    C/B Am      Am/G
Hurt me, I will take the blame
F              G
Heal me, then say my name
C                 C/B   Am     Am/G
Trust me, this is who I am
  F                    G
Believe me, I want to give you all I can, hey


[Pre Chorus]

C
How can I ever know what love can truly be?
Am                                Am/G
I want to live alone inside my fantasies
F                                        G
Why can't I turn away? I'm under your persuasion


[Chorus]

C                   C/B Am
Please, don't steal my heart
              Ab          G
Don't make me start over again
C                 C/B Am
Please, don't hurt my pride
              Ab              G
Don't make me hide my loving away


[Outro]
                   C
Unless you love me surely
           C/B     Am A
Unless you love me truly
                 F
Maybe then we'll find a way
   G               C
To stay together always
