1. Baby, close that suitcase you've been packing,

     G                                                C

    just sit down and talk to me a while.

          Am                                               C

    I know you tried to tell me what was lacking,

              Am                                                D

    but I guess I must have missed it by a mile.

               G                                             C

    Well this time, girl, I swear to you I'll listen,

      G                                                     C

    help me understand where I went wrong.

          Am                                         C

    It's hard to find myself in this position,

       Am                                                   D

    scared that I'll go crazy once you're gone.

 

                       G                     C

Help me hold on to what we had,

                                 Am         D           G

once our love was strong, it can be again.

                              G                       C

You said it takes two to make love last,

                              Am           D                 G

you were right all along, so help me hold on !

2. What have I got to do to make it better ?

          G                                                 C

    What have I got to do to make you see

           Am                                            C

    that even though I promised you ‘forever’,

        Am                                              D

    I never knew how hard that would be ?

        G                                           C

    I realized I took your love for granted,

                  G                                                                  C

    but I've learned that love worth having don't come free.

          Am                                          C

    And I'll pay any price it takes to keep you,

    Am                                             D - D7

    satisfied and staying here with m…...e.
