You just tear me up when you smile at me. 

And then my head starts buzzin' like a  

honey bee. 
   Db                                   Ab 
My eyes won't focus and I'm so upset, I sit  
                   
here shakin' in a cold, cold sweat. 
       Eb                       Db 
You're makin' a fool out of me, that's  
               Ab 
pretty easy to see.

Ab 
You just tear me up everytime we kiss. 

I never thought that love could ever be  

like this.

I guess you know that I'm in love with you.

I wish you'd tell me that you love me, too.

You're foolin' around with my heart, please

old pup.

When you put your arms around me, baby, you  
        Eb 
tear me up. 

#3. 
       Ab 
I just wanna know if you love me, too. 

Cause if you leave me now, I don't know  

what I'll do. 
    Db 
I'm so in love that I can hardly speak. 
   Ab 
My head is spinnin' and I'm feelin' weak. 
    Eb                          Db 
So, won't you consider my plea, don't take  
             Ab 
advantage of me.
