Standard tuning. The original goes from H (Cb, but I transformed it into C.

So, chords used:

  -0---   -6--    -1--    -3--   -1--
  -1---   -6--    -3--    -3--   -1--
C -0--- B -7-- Dm -2-- Gm -3-- F -2--

  -3---   -8--    -x--    -5--   -3--
  -x---   -6--    -x--    -3--   -1--

C (x32010@1)                 B (x2444x@1)          CI (x32010@1)don't know how to make lots of money,
I got debts that I'm trying to pay,
Dm (xx0231@1)   C (x32010@1)     B (x2444x@1)                            DmI (xx0231@1)can't buy you nice things, like big diamond rings,
B (x2444x@1)                         CBut (x32010@1)that don't mean much anyway.

I can't give you the house you've been dreaming,
If I could I would build it alone,
I'd be out there all day, just hammering away,
Make us a place of our own.

Dm (xx0231@1)   C (x32010@1)         FI (133211@1)will write you a song,
Dm (xx0231@1)              B (x2444x@1)          F (133211@1)           CThat's (x32010@1)how you'll know that my love is still strong.
I will write you a song,
           Gm (355333@1)           B (x2444x@1)         CAnd (x32010@1)you'll know from this song that I just can't go on
        Fwithout (133211@1)you.

I don't know that I'd make a good soldier,
I don't believe in being violent and cruel,
I don't know how to fight, but I'll draw blood tonight,
If somebody tries hurting you.

I will write you a song,
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong.
I will write you a song,
And you'll know from this song that I just can't go on
without you.

Dm (xx0231@1)     B (x2444x@1)             FNow (133211@1)that it's out on the table, (it's out on the table)
Dm (xx0231@1)    B (x2444x@1)         CBoth (x32010@1)of us knew all along, (knew all along)
Dm (xx0231@1)          B (x2444x@1)        C (x32010@1)           DmI've (xx0231@1)got your loving and you've got my song.


I don't know how to make lots of money,
I don't know all the right things to do,
I can't say where we'll go, but the one thing I know,
Is how to be a good man to you,
Until I die that's what I'll do.

I will write you a song,
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong.
I will write you a song,
And you'll know from this song that I just can't go on
without.
I will write you a song, (I will write you a song)
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong. (love
is still strong)
I will write you a song,
And you know from this song that I just can't go on
without you.
