(Carpenters)
           F#5
We fell in love
       Ab5          
On the first night that we met
F5
Together we've been happy
  Bb5
I have very few regrets
F#5
The ordinary problems
F5
Have not been hard to face
    Bb5           F#5
But lately little changes
          Ab5        Ab5
Have been slowly taking place

         F5
You're always finding
Bb5          F#5              G#7sus - Ab5
Something is wrong in what I do
        F5        Bb5
But you can't rearrange my life
  F#5                   Ab5
Because it pleases you

Chorus:
F#5     Ab5  F#5 C#5               Ab5
You've got to love me for what I am
    Bb5
For simply being me
      F#5
Don't love me for what you intend
   Ab5           Ab5
Or hope that I will be
F5
And if you're only using me
   C5         F5
To feed your fantasy
Bb5
You're really not in love
          F#5 G#sus Ab5      C#5
So let me go, I    must be free

            F#5
If what you want
      Ab5
Isn't natural for me
F5
I won't pretend to keep you
       Bb5
What I am , I have to be
F#5
The picture of perfection
F5
Is only on your mind
    Bb5           F#5
For all your expectations
           G#sus    Ab5
Love can never be designed

     F5              Bb5
We either take each other
    F#5            G#7sus - Ab5              
For everything we are
   F5                   Bb5
Or leave the life we've made behind
    F#5        Ab5
And make another start
