He asked her, (G) "what gifts can I bring you
To prove that my love for you is (C) true
Want to make you mine, for(G)ever
There's nothing on this earth, I would not (C) do"
She said, (Em) "anything I have wanted

So (Am) now, there's (C/B) only (C) one more (C/B) thing I (D) need
If you (Cadd9) love me"...
Give me (G) wings
Don't be afraid if I (Cadd9) fly
A bird in a (D) cage, will for(G)get (D/F#) how to (Em) sing

To(D)gether (Dsus) (D)
If you (Cadd9) love me"...
