Intro: [Am] [F7] [B7] [E7]
[Am] [Am7/G] [F7] [E7]
Love me or leave me, or let me be lonely;
[Am] [Am7/G] [F7] [E7]
You won't believe me, I love you only.
[C] alt [Am] [F] [G] [C] [Am] [F7] [E7]
I'd rather be lonely than happy with someone else.
[Am] [Am7/G] [F7] [E7]
You might find the night time the right time for kissin',
[Am] [Am7/G] [F7] [G7]
But night time is my time for just reminiscin',
[C] alt [Am] [F] [G] [C] [E7]
Regrettin' instead of forgettin' with somebody else.
Bridge:
[Am] [Am7] [A7] [Dm] [A7] [Dm] [Dm]+7
There'll be no one unless that someone is you;
[G] [G7] [C] [Dm7] [Am7] [E7]
I intend to be independently blue.
[Am] [Am7/G] [F7] [E7]
I want your love, but I don't want to borrow,
[Am] [Am7/G] [F7] [G7]
To have it today to give back tomorrow,
[C] alt [Am]
For my love is your love --
[F] [G7] [C] alt
There's no love for nobody else.
