       F    Bb               Am    Dm
Loving you, loving you ain't easy

But I don't mind if I can stay here by your side...

Every lonely road you walk along
C             F
I'll be there too

Just say the word love

And I would follow you

Every lonely road you walk along

If only you would show me that you care

Loving you, loving you ain't easy
            Bb            C           F           C
But I don't mind if I can stay here by your side...

Won't you stop and take a look at me?
C                F
Tell me what you see
F             Bb
Someone who's always there
     C               F
When everything goes wrong
F                         Bb
Won't you stop and take a look at me
A             Dm
Must I always be
    Bb                Gm           Csus4   C
The kind of fool that you keep hanging on

Loving you, loving you ain't easy

But I don't mind if I can stay here by your side...

'Cause baby, I don't show it
