Intro: D/C 
       D9  C6(#11) (2x) 

 D9 
Love me or leave me, but please don´t deceive me 
     C6(#11) 
And say you´ll love me how i am 
              D9 
You love the way i fit some ideal, 
                           C6(#11) 
Not the real woman you´ve yet to understand 
      G#°                       Gm11 
See, love ain´t all heaven, and i am no angel 
 C13                     A13 
But i do the best i can 

 
            D9                            F#7/#5 
You always wanted something more from my body 
     Bm11                                E6(#11) 
And said you needed something more from my lovin´ 
    Bb9          D9               F#m7/b13        Bm11 
But all you got was me and that´ all that i can be, 
     Em9     A13         D9 
I´m sorry if it let you down 

Interlúdio 2x:  D9  C6(#11) 

          D9                                                C6(#11) 
Now it´ no nice excuse, but all the magic was used up on trying to uphold 
              D9 
Some kind of tame, flattering persona that 
                 C6(#11) 
Soon enough was getting real old 
    G#°                          Gm11                 C13 
It takes more than pressure to change rock to diamond, 
                                                       A13 
Now all you have is sand slipping through your fingers 


            D9                            F#7/#5 
You always wanted something more from my body 
     Bm11                                E6(#11) 
And said you needed something more from my lovin´ 
    Bb9          D9               F#m7/b13        Bm11 
But all you got was me and that´ all that i can be, 
     Em9     A13         D9  C#m7/11 
I´m sorry if it let you down 

 C9      Bm9                 Bb9            Am11            Ab° 
But i´m not gonna sit around and waste my precious divine energy 
  G9                   F#7     Em7/11                         A#° 
Tryin´ to explain and being ashamed of things you think are wrong with me 
         Bm9                 Bb9            Am11            Ab° 
But i´m not gonna sit around and waste my precious divine energy 
  G9                   F#7     Em7/11 
Tryin´ to explain and being ashamed of things you think are wrong with me 

Interlúdio 2x: D9  C6(#11) 

 E9/Ab              Gm6 
Set you up, you say i set you up 
        D/F#                        Bm11          Bm11/A 
Like i was different than what i am offering you now 
 E9/Ab                Gm6 
Let you down, you say i let you down 
           D/F# 
And drove your heart around 
         F7                Em11 
Did you forget about all the love 
                         Ab9/13 
And the acceptance that you promised me too?
