GEmBmD

GHave you seen her face

Oh Amit's so hard to deEmfine you but I just Ddon't wanna know

No I D7don't wanna know

That Gall that I've become

EmAll that I ever done

D7love

But it's all unGderstood

GEmBmD

She's Emmine for whatever we hold

It's a Bmchemistry thing

It's a tale for the Dages

Now won't you Gbe my open books

If I Dont Have You

Key: GmMedium

Four chords throughout the whole song: Gm F D# F

I sometimes play it G#m F# E F# because I think that it is easier (works to

play along with if you tune your guitar to D#, but this is the way Mando Diao plays it

both live and on the album. Hope you'll enjoy! Feel free to correct.

Rest in peace, Kristian Gidlund.

If I don't have Gmyou

Then how am I supposed to Fget it on?

It's been a Dlong cold war in a lonely cell

But I'm still Fhanging on

If I don't have Gmyou

In this loneDly cell I will wait for you

Till my time hasF come

One Gmlife, one second, one change

One fail, I've got you in like that,

Life's changed, FI know how it goes

If it turns, they will not be the same

DAin't no one before you

I didn't know love it all till I physically touched you

FHow can I just throw you away?

My God, I'm insane, I let you run away for gGmood
