Torn between two lovers
Am - D - G
- - - - - - Am D G
1. There are times when a woman has to say what's on her mind,
Am D7 G
even though she knows how much it's gonna hurt.
Am D G Em
Before I say another word, let me tell you I love you,
Am C Am D - D7
let me hold you close and say these words as gently as I can.
Am D G
2. There's been another man that I've needed and I've loved,
Am D7 G
but that doesn't mean I love you less,
Am D G Em
and he knows he can't possess me, and he knows he never will,
Am C Am D - D7
there's just this empty place inside of me that only he can fill.
Am D7 - Bm E
Torn between two lovers, feeling like a fool,
Am D7 G E
loving both of you is breaking all the rules.
Am D7 - Bm E
Torn between two lovers, feeling like a fool,
Am D7 G
loving you both is breaking all the rules.
Am D
3. You mustn't think you've failed me
G
just because there's someone else,
Am D7 G
you were the first real love I ever had.
Am D G Em
And all the things I ever said, I swear they still are true,
Am C Am D - D7
for no one else can have the part of me I gave to you.
+ CHORUS
Am D G Em
+ I couldn't really blame you, if you turned and walked away,
Am C Am D - D7
but with everything I feel inside I'm asking you to stay !
Am D7 - Bm E
Torn between two lovers, feeling like a fool,
Am D7 G E
loving both of you is breaking all the rules.
Am D7 - Bm E
Torn between two lovers, feeling like a fool,
Am D7 G
loving you both is breaking all the rules.
+ E + CHORUS ....
