• Song:

    He Loves Me

  • Artist:

    Jill Scott

Transcribed by Gavin Chart


NOTES:
Jill Scott's classic song about her former husband Lyzel Williams.
It IS in Eb, so if you want to play along, you'll have to flatten
the four chords by a semi-tone (i.e. Eb5 , Ab5 , B5 , Bb5 ).
As they can all be played as barr?s, that's not too difficult.
Lianne La Havas plays a cool version of this at her live shows.

VERSE:
You love me especially different every time 
You keep me on my feet happily excited
By your cologne, and your hands, your smile, your intelligence

[Spoken over VERSE chords:]

You're different and special
You're different and special in every way imaginable 
You love me from my hair follicles to my toenails 
You got me feeling like the breeze, easy and free and lovely and new 
Oh, when you touch me I just can't control it 
When you touch me, I just can't hold it 
The emotion inside of me, I can feel it 

Ah...
