Intro:

D  Bm (x2), D (n.c)

Verse 1:

(n.c)        D                      Bm
 If I were a tower of strength, I'd walk away,
    F#m                   Em7             A7
I'd look in your eyes and here's what I'd say;
        D                 Bm
I don't want you, I don't need you,
        D            G (n.c)
I don't love you any-more,
                     D
And I'd walk out the door.

Chorus 1:

D
 You'd be down on your knees,
                        B7
You'd be calling to me...
      G                               A7 (n.c)      (D)
But a tower of strength is something...   I'll never be.

Interlude:

D  Bm (x2), D (n.c)

Verse 2:

(n.c)        D                      Bm
 If I were a tower of strength, I'd watch you cry,
    F#m                     Em7           A7
I'd laugh at your tears and tell you good-bye.
        D                 Bm
I don't want you, I don't need you,
        D            G (n.c)
I don't love you any-more,
                     D
And I'd walk out the door.

Chorus 2:

D
 You'd be down on your knees,
                        B7
You'd be calling to me...
      G                               A7 (n.c)      (D)
But a tower of strength is something...   I'll never be.

I don't love you any-more,
                     D
And I'd walk out the door.

Chorus 3:

D
 You'd be down on your knees, uh-huh,
                        B7
You'd be calling to me...
      G                               A7 (n.c)      (D)
But a tower of strength is something...   I'll never be.
