I Loved You When

Cmaj7/E - [022010]

[Vers 1]
C                   G
She stepped off the airplane,
    F                       C
And we drove straight to my house.
C                     G
An hour later we were lyin in bed,
    F                  C
And laughin right out loud.
   F                G
We talked about the old times
    C            F
And we made love again.
C            Cmaj7/E
It'd been so long,
      F                      G
Since my fingers touched her skin.


[Vers 2]
   Am             G
If We were so in love back then.
    F              C
Why didn't we work out?
     Am
Well I don't know,
    G                     F
It don't make sense to me now.


[Vers 3]
         Am
She said tell me you love me.
F
I love you.
         Am
She said say it again.
     F
Ooh honey I do.
     Am
Then say it like you mean it,
          Em                             F
Like it's in your heart and you believe it.
                          G
I'm needing to believe it too.


[Chorus]
  F                      C
I loved you when we were innocent.
       F                      C
And I loved you when we were young.
   Am                                 F
I loved you when I was working on the beach chairs in the sun.
   F                 C              F          C
I loved you in that rundown flat we rented overseas.
       Am
And I love you now so powerful
    F
It brings me to my knees.
           Am                   G           F
And in the night when your hair falls down around my face.
C   Cmaj7/E  F
    I        love you.

[Vers 4]
C                G
She got up for a drink
       F                 C
walked naked across the floor.
C                       G
Looked back at me with that playful smile
    F                  C
And I wanted her once more.
     Am                        F
Then she poured the wine and we drank it
     Am                      F
And we laid back down on the bed.
         Am
Then she curled up against me
    Em                       F                 G
And said if you want me you'll have to tell me again.


[Chorus]
       F                      C
I said I loved you when we were innocent.
       F                      C
And I loved you when we were young.
       Am                                 F
And I loved you when I was working hard on the beach chairs in the sun.
   F                 C              F          C
I loved you in that rundown flat we rented overseas.
       Am
And I love you now so powerful
    F
It brings me to my knees.
       Am                   G                 F
In the night when your hair falls down around my face.
C   Cmaj7/E  F
    I        love you.


[Bridge]
        F                G
Then the next day at the airport
        Am
I held her close and I
F                        G
Hated like hell to let her go.
         Dm               G
But as I did, I quietly said.


[Outro]
  F                       C
I loved you when we were breakin up
         F                 C
When the truth was hard to see.
   Am
I love you now so powerful
         F
It still brings me to my knees
     Am                   G           F
Last night when your hair fell down around my face.
C   Cmaj7/E  F
    I        loved you.
