          Dm
Well, you know I'll always love you

If I said that I could please you
      Dm
Every moment that I try
[Chorus]
         G
Wouldn't want to see you crying
     Dm                               A
So I hope you don't mind the things I say
       Dm
On the way

Well, we've been traveling for a long time
       G

Though I said some things to hurt you
             Dm
Well, it was only out of fear
[Chorus]
         G
Wouldn't want to see you crying
     Dm                               A
So I hope you don't mind the things I say
