Standard (EADGBE)

I wish that you would listen and maybe try to understand

 There just ain't nothin' here to hurt you

You don't know me yet you say so like you do

Cause each time I that I write you you make me out to be your fool

Baby, what's the matter please?

If I give you lovin' from way down deep inside

You say I'm just pretending but if I had something to hide

Would I stand up to have you laugh right in my face

I'm a simple man of love is that to my disgrace

Baby, what's the matter please?

Lonely nights thinkin' what should I do

Draw the line, I got feelings too, that's right

But I'll love you and try to put your heart at ease

 Baby, what's the matter please?

Precious moments are so few

Looking for the love I thought I knew

My life seems like a hundred years a day

Waiting in this dream or in a nightmare should I say

Cause all I'm askin's that we never give away

That little bit of somethin that meant so much yesterday

Baby, what's the matter please?
