[Intro]
A Dm7 A#7 A
[Verse 1]
SometAimes when I F#mwake at night
In Athe hour beF#mfore the light
DDarkness seems to C#mcover
And hHm7ide me fC#mrom all rEeason
Then oAut on the rF#mooftop high
AnoAther day begF#mins to climb
DSomething is wC#making F#min the light
There EI can see
A slF#meepy head so cElose to me
And Devery little word we sC#m7ang through the night
Is bHm7right for the dayE  
[Chorus]
AHey, you know you are lC#m7ove to me
You hold Deverything like a cEhild for me
And I Athink of you and your C#m7funny ways
That sweet suDmmer smile on your lEovely face
How I lDove you
You C#mare love tF#mo me
D Hm C#m F
[Verse 2]
I Atry when we F#mhave to fight
ATo say the words
To F#mput things right
It gDets so hard not tC#mouching
With mHmiles between our fEingers
And Athen when you dF#mon't believe
AThere's so much pride to Fmhide beneath
DThat something is gC#mrowing
In eF#mvery room the Etouch of you
The F#mtender edge of lEoving you
And Deverything I have is C#mnothing
If it can't Hm7belong to Eyou
[Chorus]
AHey, you know you are lC#m7ove to me
You hold Deverything like a cEhild for me
And I Athink of you and your C#m7funny ways
That sweet suDmmer smile on your lEovely face
How I lDove you
You C#mare love tF#mo me

[Intro]

A Dm7 A#7 A

[Verse 1]

A F#m

Sometimes when I wake at night

A F#m

In the hour before the light

D C#m

Darkness seems to cover

Hm7 C#m E

And hide me from all reason

A F#m

Then out on the rooftop high

A F#m

Another day begins to climb

D C#m F#m

Something is waking in the light

There I can see

F#m E

A sleepy head so close to me

D C#m7

And every little word we sang through the night

Hm7 E

Is bright for the day

[Chorus]

A C#m7

Hey, you know you are love to me

D E

You hold everything like a child for me

A C#m7

And I think of you and your funny ways

D E

That sweet summer smile on your lovely face

How I love you

C#m F#m

You are love to me

D Hm C#m F

[Verse 2]

A F#m

I try when we have to fight

To say the words

F#m

To put things right

D C#m

It gets so hard not touching

Hm E

With miles between our fingers

A F#m

And then when you don't believe

A Fm

There's so much pride to hide beneath

D C#m

That something is growing

F#m E

In every room the touch of you

F#m E

The tender edge of loving you

D C#m

And everything I have is nothing

Hm7 E

If it can't belong to you

[Chorus]

A C#m7

Hey, you know you are love to me

D E

You hold everything like a child for me

A C#m7

And I think of you and your funny ways

D E

That sweet summer smile on your lovely face

How I love you

C#m F#m

You are love to me

[Outro]
