The Weakness In Me - Joan Armatrading

Intro: G  Em  C  G

            G       D          Em                          C
I'm not the sort of person who falls in and quickly out of love
       G             D                         C        G
But to you I gave my affection right from the start
         G         D         Em                       C
I have a lover who loves me, how could I break such a heart
    G                   D               C     G
Yet still you gained my attention

                Em            C                      G
Why do you come here when you know I've got trouble enough
                Em          C                       G
Why do you call me when you know I can't answer the phone
            D                    C
You make me lie and I don't want to
                 D                           G
You make someone else some kind of unknowing fool
            D                  C
You make me stay when I should not
           D                                G
Are you so strong or is all the weakness in me

                Em          C                       G
Why do you come here and pretend to be just passing by
              D   C        D    G
But I need to see you
              D    C       D    G      
And I need to hold you,         tightly

G     Em     C     G








        G       D        Em                    C
Feeling guilty, worried, waking from tormented sleep
     G                     D                        C      G
This old love has me bound... but the new love cuts deep
     G                 D        Em                C
if I choose now, I'll lose out, one of you has to fall
      G             D            C    G
But I need you, and you.

                Em            C                      G
Why do you come here when you know I've got trouble enough
                Em          C                       G
Why do you call me when you know I can't answer the phone
            D                    C
You make me lie and I don't want to
                 D                           G
You make someone else some kind of unknowing fool
            D                  C
You make me stay when I should not
           D                                G
Are you so strong or is all the weakness in me

                Em          C                       G
Why do you come here and pretend to be just passing by
              D   C        D    G
But I need to see you
              D    C       D    G      
And I need to hold you,         tightly
