    Live in Holland

Am             C
If you could only see the way she loves me
                     G     *      G/F
Then maybe you would understand
                Am             C 
Why I feel this way about our love
                G     *    G/F
And what I must do
                  Am                C                    G     *    
If you could only see how blue her eyes can be when she says
G/F (break)
     When she says she loves me

*: when you play the G chord mute the A string and hammer on and off second 
fret of the G string for a cool little lick you can here in the recording 
if you listen carefully

don't play Gtr.2. Listen to the song.
