   G                        Bm            Em

1. I can't fight this feeling any longer,

           Am                C                 D     - D7

    and yet I'm still afraid to let it flow.

                G                    D                               Dm  E

    What started out as friendship has grown stronger,

              Am                     C                       D     - D7

    I only wish I had the strength to let it show.

 

   G                          Bm                    Em

2. I tell myself that I can't hold out forever,

      Am                     C                    D    - D7

    I say there is no reason for my fear,

               G                 D                          Dm E

    ‘cause I feel so secure when we're together

           Am                 G                           C                      D

    you give my life direction, you make everything so clear.

 

            C                                Bm

    And even as I wander, I'm keeping you in sight,

                   C                                        G                         D

    you're a candle in the window on a cold dark winter's night,

            C                              Em                         D       - C

    and I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might.

 

       D                        G               Am     - C

And I can't fight this feeling anymore,

             D                   G                   Am  - C

I've forgotten what I started fighting for.

                                    G                 Am

It's time to bring this ship into the shore,

          Bm                  C        D           - C

and throw away the oars forever.

           D                         G              Am     - C

‘Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore,

            D                    G                   Am   - C

I've forgotten what I started fighting for,

                           G                    Am

and if I have to crawl upon the floor,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

            Bm                               C

come crashing through your door,

         D                        D7               G

baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore.

3. My life has been such a whirlwind since I saw you,

                    Am                       C                   D       - D7

    I've been running 'round in circles in my mind.

               G                                 D            Dm  E

    And it always seems that I'm following you girl,

                      Am                     G                C                    D

    ’cause you take me to the places that alone I'd never find.

 

            C                                Bm

    And even as I wander, I'm keeping you in sight,

                   C                                        G                         D

    you're a candle in the window on a cold dark winter's night,

            C                              Em                         D       - C

    and I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might.
