Verse 1:
|:       G   C:| X6
What kind of confusion,
Or distorted view,
is this strange fascination,
That draws me to you,
not one single atom,
Of me is still free,
Chorus: (But do you love, love me, like I love)
|:       G   E:| x2
   G      A
Verse 2:
The winter is drawing in,
But I continue to pray,
That you be the sunshine,
To brighten each cloudy day,
Neither myth nor legend,
Could hope to rival you,
Chorus X2
Solo over G,   EX4
Chorus:
ends on an Am
