love me for what i Am
( carpenters )
F#
we fell in love
G#
on the first night that we met
Fm
together we’ve been happy
A#m
i have very few regrets
F#
the ordinary problems
Fm
have not been hard to face
A#m F#
but lately little changes
G#sus4 G#
have been slowly taking place

Fm
you’re always finding
A#m F# G#7sus – G#7
something is wrong in what i do
Fm A#m
but you can’t rearrange my life
F# G#
because it pleases you

chorus :
F# G# F# C# G#
you’ve got to love me for what i Am
A#m
for simply being me
F#
don’t love me for what you intend
G#sus4 G#
or hope that i will be
Fm
and if you’re only using me
C Fm
to feed your fantasy
A#m
you’re really not in love
F# G#sus G# C#
so let me go , i must be free

F#
if what you want
G#
isn’t natural for me
Fm
i won’t pretend to keep you
A#m
what i Am , i have to be
F#
the picture of perfection
Fm
is only on your mind
A#m F#
for all your expectations
G#sus G#
love can never be designed

Fm A#m
we either take each other

F# G#
and make another start
