#1.
D        Bm      D
When the morning sun, streaks across my room,
        C               Am               G
and I'm wakin' up, from another dream of you.
G                          D
Yes, I'm on the road, once again it seems,
         C                 D               G
all I've left behind, is a chain of broken dreams.

CHORUS:
G              D                C
But you know I love you..yes, I love you, oh, I 
G         D
love you.

#2.
      G                         D
How I wish that love, is all we need to live..
       C                          G
what a life we'd live, cause I've got so much to 

give.
G                             D
And it seems so wrong, deep inside my heart that 
    C                                G
the dollar sign could be keeping us apart..

CHORUS:
G               D                C
When you know I love you..yes, I love you..yes, I
G              D
love youuu-ouu-ouuu.

BRIDGE:
D      C                              G
And if only I could find, my way back to the time,
         G7                                    
when the problems of this life of mine had not yet 
C
crossed our minds.
        Dm7                                   Bb
All the answers just were found in children's nursery 
        G        C               F7            D7
rhymes..I'd come running back to you, I'd come running 
        G   D
back to you.

#4.
        G                     D
But you know we can't live on dreams alone.
        C                                   G
Just to pay the rent, I must leave you all alone.
G                                  D
But you know I made my choice many years ago..
         C                                G
now this traveling life is the only one I know.

CHORUS:
G              D                C
But you know I love you..yes, I love you, oh, I 
G         
love you.

OUTRO:
G              D                C
But you know I love you..yes, I love you, whoa, I 
G         
love you.
G              D                C
But you know I love you..yes, I love you, whoa, I 
G         
love you.
G              D                C
But you know I love you..yes, I love you, whoa, I 
G         
love you.
G              D                C
But you know I love you..yes, I love you, whoa, I 
G         
love you.
G              D                C
But you know I love you..yes, I love you, whoa, I 
G         
love you..(Fade.)
