Cmaj7          Bm7/E
Turn down the lights,
 Bm7           Cmaj7
turn down the bed
 C               Bm7   Em         Am7
Turn down these voices inside my head
 Cmaj7         Bm7/E
Lay down with me,
 Bm7        Cmaj7
tell me no lies
C             Bm7   Em         Am7
Just hold me close, don't patronize
            Cmaj7  Dsus4D
Don't patronize me

                  C        G              Cmaj7      Am7
R: Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
              C         G          Bm7          Cmaj7
   You can't make your heart feel something it won't
    Em7         Cmaj7    D           Em
   Here in the dark, in these final hours
           Em          Cmaj7     D             Em7
   I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
        Am7           Dsus4    D
   But you won't, no you won't
                   Cmaj7    Bm7     Cmaj7
   'Cause I can't make you love me,
           Cmaj7
   if you don't
   Bm7/E Bm7 Cmaj7, C Bm7 Em Am7

I'll close my eyes,
then I won't see
The love you don't feel when you're holding me
Morning will come and I'll do what's right
Just give me till then to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight

R:
