[Verse 1]
               Am7
When I said, I needed you
D7                   Gmaj7
  You said you would always stay
Cmaj7              Am7
  It wasn't me who changed, but you
    F#m7            | B7 | % |
And know you've gone away


[Verse 2]
  B7                  [ Em *]    Am
(break)  Don't you know ... that now you're gone
D7                  Gmaj7
  And I'm left here on my own
Cmaj7           Am7
  Now I have to follow you
    F#m7           | B7 | B7-13 B7 |
And beg you to come home


[Chorus]
E                 C#m
You don't have to say you love me
F#m7              B7sus4 B7
 Just be close at hand
E                 C#m
You don't have to stay forever
F#m7         B7
 I will understand
  E           G#m
Believe me, believe me
  C#m
I can't help but love you
      F#m7                        | B7 | % |
But believe me, I'll never tie you down


[Verse 3]
  B7              [ Em *]           Am
(break)  Left alone ... with just a memory
D7                    Gmaj7
  Life seems dead and so unreal
Cmaj7                Am7
  All that's left is loneliness
        B7              | Em | Em * Emadd9 |
There's nothing left to feel


[Chorus]
E                 C#m
You don't have to say you love me
F#m7              B7sus4 B7
 Just be close at hand
E                 C#m
You don't have to stay forever
F#m7         B7
 I will understand
  E           C#
Believe me, believe me


[Chorus]
F#                D#m
You don't have to say you love me
G#m7              C#7sus4 C#7
 Just be close at hand
F#                D#m
You don't have to stay forever

 I will understand
