If It Kills Me

	  		Intro: hit the bass note for D then pluck D,E,Em  
(hit the high e string when you play E chords) 

D                  E  
Hello, tell me you know  
          Em  
Yeah, you figured me out  
D                 E   Em  
Something gave it away  
D                                E  
And it would be such a beautiful moment  
   Em  
To see the look on your face  
D              E                  Em  
To know that I know that you know now  

Em                           D  F#m* Em   D  
And baby that’s a case of my wishful thinking  
A   D    Em  
You know nothing  
D  
Cause you and I  
           E               Em  
Why, we go carrying on for hours, on and  
D                 E 
We get along much better  
     Em (hold)  
Than you and your boyfriend  

D                             F#m  
Well all I really wanna do is love you  
                        Bm  
A kind much closer than friends use  
                               G              Gm  
But I still can’t say it after all we’ve been through  
D                                    F#m  
And all I really want from you is to feel me  
                            Bm  
As the feeling inside keeps building  
                                   G  
And I will find a way to you if it kills me  
     Gm  
If it kills me  

Break: D,Gm,Am,A#,C  

D                       E  
Well how long, can I go on like this,  
Em  
Wishing to kiss you,  
D                  E    Em  
Before I rightly explode?  
D                             E  
This double life I lead isn’t healthy for me  
           Em  
In fact it makes me nervous  
D                                     E  Em  
If I get caught I could be risking it all  

                          D  
Baby there’s a lot that I miss  
F#m* Em D   A  
In case I’m wrong  

D                             F#m  
Well all I really wanna do is love you  
                        Bm  
A kind much closer than friends use  
                               G              Gm  
But I still can’t say it after all we’ve been through  
D                                    F#m  
And all I really want from you is to feel me  
                            Bm  
As the feeling inside keeps building  
                                   G  
And I will find a way to you if it kills me  
      Gm  
If it kills me  

Break: D,Gm,Am,A#,Am,Em  


If I should be so bold  
    D                  Em  
I’d ask you to hold my heart in your hand  
D                                Em        D       A  
Tell you from the start how I’ve longed to be your man  
      A (pause)  
But I never said a word 
I guess I’m gonna miss my chance again  

Break: D,F#m,Bm,Gm,Am,A#,C  

D                        F#m  
All I really wanna do is love you  
                        Bm  
A kind much closer than friends use  
                               G              Gm  
But I still can’t say it after all we’ve been through  
D                                    F#m  
And all I really want from you is to feel me  
                            Bm  
As the feeling inside keeps building  
                                   G  
And I will find a way to you if it kills me  
     Gm  
If it kills me  
      D          F#m  
If it kills me  
                 Bm   Gm  
I think it might kill me  

D                                    F#m  
And all I really want from you is to feel me  
                                 B  
It’s a feeling inside that keeps building  
                                   G  
And I will find a way to you if it kills me  
      Gm  
If it kills me  
         D       Gm,Am,A#,C,D 
It might kill me
