Intro 
 
When your (C) heart is all al(Am7)one  
Every (F) second seems so (G) long 
When it's just (C) you, you can't see (Am7) through 
Those ol' (F) clouds that rain so (G) blue (Am7/G) (G7) 
 
But when (C) somebody (F) loves you   (G7) 
There's (C) nothing you (F) can't do   (G7) 
When (Am7) somebody loves you 
It's (D7) easy to get through 
When (F) somebody loves you (G) (Am7/G) (G7) 
The way I (C) love you (F) (G7) (C) (F) (G7) 
 
When it's (C) late, the sun (Am7) hangs low 
By (F) yourself, nowhere (G) to go 
Sing a (C) song, you dance a(Am7)lone 
Play (F) solitaire and stare (G) at the phone (Am7/G) (G7) 
 
But when (C) somebody (F) loves you   (G7) 
There's (C) nothing you (F) can't do   (G7) 
When (Am7) somebody loves you 
It's (D7) easy to get through 
When (F) somebody loves you (G) (Am7/G) (G7) 
The way I (C) love you (F) (G7) (C) (F) (G7) 
  
So let's (Am7) put aside our (F) foolish pride 
And (Am7) let our hearts say hell(F)o  
We (Am7) both agree we're (F) just no good 
At bein' on our (G) own (Am7/G) (G7)  
 
(A) (Bm7) (A7) 
 
But when (D) somebody (G) loves you   (A7) 
There's (D) nothing you (G) can't do   (A7) 
When (Bm7) somebody loves you 
It's (E7) easy to get through 
When (G) somebody loves you (A) (Bm7) (A7) 
The way I (D) love you (G) (A7) 
The way I (D) love you (G) (Bm7) (A7) the way I love you (D)
