Baby I've been drifting for so long 
C5                        G5 
I've had more than I can take on my own 
C5                          F5 
So I've been thinking about some things you said 
C5                        G5   
Wondering if it's time I laid my guard to rest 
A5                       C5 
Cause you are just a man who wants to understand 
G5                     D5 
If I take a chance on you 


      F5               C5 
I may cry, Baby I may say I love you tonight 
      F5                              G5 
I may let you look inside and see forever's on my mind 
      F5                            C5     C5     A5 
I may kiss you, I may hold you and never let you go 
           C5              G5                         F5         C5 
But if you promise not to tell I'll be sweet on the down low  
 
I have built these walls high and out of reach 

Cause I don't want my heart out for all to see 

When you look at me, you still see my strength 

You don't know yet just how easily I break 

But when the stone's unfurled, I am just a girl 

So go easily on me 
 
Chorus 
 
Solo 
 

A5 
But you are just a man 
C5 
So I will understand 
G5                        D5 
If I fall, this one's on me 
 
Chorus 
 
If you promise not to tell I'll be sweet on the down low 

Oh oh oh I'll be sweet on the down low
