C 

  C                            Dm 
You make me wanna try a little harder 
  G                            C 
Cause the easy thing to do is just get by 
  C                            Dm 
Now that I have won everyone over 
  G                            C 
Why do I still feel the same inside? 

  Em                      Am 
But when you say, I love you 
  Dm                      G 
Suddenly the world seems like a song 
Em                      Am 
And when you say, I love you 
  Dm                      G 
Suddenly I feel like I belong 

And so I sing along 
  C     C/B    Am    Am/G    F       C     F  G 
La la, la la, la la, la la, la la, la la 

  C                            Dm 
You make me want to push a little farther 
  G                            C 
Cause the easy thing to do is stay inside 
  C                            Dm 
And now that I can see a little future 
  G                            C 
Why is it the fear I feel inside? 

  Em                      Am 
But when you say, I love you 
  Dm                      G 
Suddenly the world seems like a song 
  Em                      Am 
And when you say, I love you 
  Dm                      G 
Suddenly I feel like I belong 
And so I sing along 
  C     C/B    Am    Am/G    F       C     F  G 
La la, la la, la la, la la, la la, la la 

  Em                      Am 
Yeah, when you say, I love you 
  Dm                      G 
Suddenly the world seems like a song 
  Em                      Am 
But when you say, I love you 
  Dm                      G 
Suddenly I feel like I belong 
And so I sing along 
  C     C/B    Am    Am/G    F       C     F  G 
La la, la la, la la, la la, la la, la la
