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?
