Version 1
[Intro]
| G | D7 | D7 | G |
[Verse 1]
G
I could shame you 'til you hide your face
G
And drag you right down in disgrace
D
But what good would it do?
G
I know I'd still want you
[Verse 2]
G
I could tell the world you're doin' wrong
G
That I was stringin' you along
D
And if it all were true
G
I know I'd still want you
[Verse 3]
C7 C
This world with me might sympathize
G
When I got thru with all my lies
D7
But I'd be just as blue
G
'Cause my heart would still want you-ooo-oo
[Bridge]
G
Cry, oh, Lord
[Verse 4]
G
I could tell my friends I threw you down
G
And slander your name all over town
D
But what good would it do?
G
I know I'd still want you
[Verse 5]
G
If I said I'm happy to be free
G
The only one I'd fool is me
D
Because it isn't true
G
I know I'd still want you
[Verse 6]
C
What's the use to say that you're no good?
G
When I'd crawl back if I could
D
No matter what you do
D7 D G
I know I'd still want you-ooo-oo
[Bridge]
G
Cry, oh, Lord
[Verse 7]
G
I could smile and say that I don't care
G
And then go home and pull my hair
D
But what good would it do?
G
I know I'd still want you
[Verse 8]
G
I could say that someone put me wise
G
And get revenge by telling lies
D
But when I got all thru
G
I know I'd still want you
[Verse 9]
C
If the things I said was to break your heart
G
I'd be the first to take your part
D
'Cause if all these lies were true
G
I know I'd still want you-oooo-oo
[Outro]
G
Cry, oh, Lord
