1. There are times when a woman has to say what's on her mind,
Am
D7 G
even
though she knows how much it's gonna hurt.
Am D G Em
Before I say another word, let
me tell you I love you,
Am C Am D - D7
let
me hold you close and say these words as gently as I can.
Am D G
2. There's been another man
that I've needed and I've loved,
Am
D7 G
but
that doesn't mean I love you less,
Am D
G Em
and
he knows he can't possess me, and he knows he never will,
Am C Am D - D7
there's
just this empty place inside of me that only he can fill.
Am D7 - Bm

both of you is breaking all the rules.

3. You mustn't think you've
failed me
G
just
because there's someone else,
Am
D7
G
you
were the first real love I ever had.
Am D G Em
And all the things I ever
said, I swear they still are true,
Am
C Am D - D7
for
no one else can have the part of me I gave to you.
+ CHORUS
Am
D
G Em
+ I couldn't really blame you,
if you turned and walked away,
Am C
Am D - D7
but
with everything I feel inside I'm asking you to stay !

both of you is breaking all the rules.
