[Chorus]
G Em Am D
Baby, baby, baby, this is just to say
G Em Am D
How much I'm gonna' miss you, but believe while I'm away
G Em Am D
That I didn't mean to hurt you, don't you know that I'd rather hurt myself?
G Em Am D
(I'd hurt myself, I'd hurt myself)

[Verse]
G Em Am D
Baby, baby, baby, baby, think of me sometimes
G Em Am D
Because if loving you was so wrong, then I'm guilty of this crime
G Em Am D
I'm bewildered, I'm lonely, and I'm loveless, without you to hold my hand
G Em Dm G
(Reach out for me, boy) If you'd just understand

(Reach out to me, right now)

[Bridge]
C D Bm Em
Those that we love, we foolishly make cry
Am D G G7
Then sometimes feel it's best to say goodbye, goodbye
C D Bm Em
But what's inside can't be denied
A A
The power, The power of love
D D
Is my only guide, Baby (Oh) [x2]

[Chorus]
G Em Am D
Baby, baby, baby, this is just to say
G Em Am D
How much I'm gonna' miss you, but believe while I'm away
G Em Am D
That I didn't mean to hurt you, don't you know that I'd rather hurt myself?
