Am                                                           
You, you make my life much brighter 
G                                                
     You're always on my mind  
Am                                  
You, you make my load much lighter 
G 
     True love is hard to find 
Am                                              G 
      Sometimes I feel I have to get away 
                                                                Am 
I change my mind when I look in your eyes 
Am                                                                   G 
And when those clouds come in and try to darken our days 
                       
I'll always want you to 
F        G     Am    
Stay, stay darling {repeat 3 times} 
 You saw through my lies and deception 
Yeah I was losing my way 
You, you gave my life some direction 
And now I'm ready to say 
I know there's bound to be some hard times ahead 
I'd be a fool to believe 
But if you go I'd rather think of dying instead 
I never want you to leave 
 
{Chorus} 
 
{Intermediate:} 
 
F                                 G 
   When you walked out my door 
F                            G 
   I knew you'd be back for more 
F                          G 
   Let's leave the past behind 
F                         G 
True love is so hard to find 
 
{Chorus}
