Intro:
C D G Cadd9
C D G Cadd9
That s how much I love you
C D G Cadd9
That s how much I need you
C D
And I can t stand ya
G Cadd9 C
Must everything you do make me wanna smile
D G
Can I not like it for awhile
C C D
No.. but you won t let me
G Cadd9 C
You upset me girl, then you kiss my lips
D C
All of a sudden I forget that I was upset
D
Can t remember what you did
C D
Well I hate it
G Cadd9
You know exactly what to do
C9 D
So that I can t stay mad at you
G Cadd9
For too long, that s wrong
C D
Girl, I hate it
G Cadd9
You know exactly how to touch
C D Cadd9
So that I don t wanna fuss and fight no more
C D
So I despise that I adore you
C D G Cadd9
And I hate how much I love you boy
C D G Cadd9
I can t stand how much I need you
G D G Cadd9
And I hate how much I love you boy
C D Am
But I just can t let you go
C D G
And I hate that I love you so..
G Cadd9 C
And you completely know the power that you have
D G
The only one that makes me laugh
C D G Cadd9
C
Sad and it s not fair how you take advantage of the fact that I
D Cadd9
Love you beyond the reason why
C D
And it just ain t right
And I hate how much I love you girl
I can t stand how much I need you
And I hate how much I love you girl
But I just can t let you go
And I hate that I love you so
(These chords are almost the same as the chords on another version of this song
(ver
so im just letting you know that i thought these ones worked so its not like pla
igerism.
just strumming these. Only downward strokes. Count in 4/4 time : 1 rest 2 rest
3 rest 4
like you were counting out loud. That just sounds cool if you're singing it on o
nly
If you have a percussion section while you're playing this, then just do it the
way the
does it)
The number of strokes to play for each chord in the time i suggested are as foll
ows:
Em x4, C x2, D x2, Em x4, D x4, A7
C x2, D x2, Em x1, C x1, D x2,
A7 x1, C x1, D( this chord doesn't really work, but i can't find one that does)
x4.
Hope you like this! it's easier than it looks ;)
Em C D Em
One of these days maybe your magic won t affect me
D
And your kiss won t make me weak
A7 C D
But no one in this world knows me the way you know me
Em C D A7 C D
So you ll probably always have a spell on me
Now, continue playing it normally. My time was only for the bridge above.
C D G Am x2
C D G Cadd9
That s how much I love you
C D G Cadd9
How much I need you
That s how much I need you
That s how much I love you
That s how much I need you
And I hate that I love you-pause here for a beat- so-----
And I hate how much I love you boy
I can t stand how much I need you
And I hate how much I love you boy
But I just can t let you go
And I hate that I love you so--slow down for next line
C x1 D (just stroke that D once, then stop)
And I hate that I love you so.. so..
