verse 1:  
     Emaj7/B                   
Oh, if I could see into the depths of what makes you, hey,  
you, then I could give you all that love that you pursue, 
Am7        B11 
But I,        I, 
     Emaj7/B 
Well, I am just a man, and I just can't pretend, 
That the essence of your being is easy to understand, 
Am7        B11 
But I,       I, 
Am7           B7sus4 
Well, I,      I, I, 
 
 
 
                      E 
Well, baby, 'cause I know this is complicated, 
     C#m11 
But I won't let this love get wasted, 
F#m7 
We can figure it out, 
Am9             Bm11 
We can figure it out,

I assure you you're the one, 
 Am/B  Emaj7/B                Am/B 
I just can't control my tongue, 
   Emaj7/B                                 Emaj7/B  (slide off/stop-hit)  
And I say things I would have never said, no, 
When our love was young, 
   Am7       B11 
But I,          I, 
         Emaj7/B   
Let's get back to the basics, let's rebuke all the critics, 
Let's get back to the foundation, let's revisit our classics, 
         Am7      B11 
Oh, well, I,           I, 
         Am7       B7sus4
