* - strum once
[Intro]
G Em C D
[Verse 1]
G Em I ain’t gonna lie, I’m a little bit torn C D Been left out in the rain, heart weathered and worn G Em I’ve seen too much, been kicked around C D Don’t trust easy, been let down G Em Like a dog behind a chain-link fence C D Eyes full of stories that don’t make sense G Em I might growl, I might hide, but deep inside C D* I just want a hand that won’t let go this time
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G D G So if you’re gonna love me, girl, you gotta know Cadd9 G D G If you take a shelter dog, you better move slow Cadd9 G I’ll need patience, And love that’s right D G I’ve been broken I don’t mean to bite Cadd9 G D G If you’re gonna love me, girl love me right Cadd9 G D G If you’re gonna love me, girl Better hold me tight
[Verse 2]
G Em I come with scars you might not see C D A bark that’s tougher than it needs to be G Em I’ll flinch at kindness, I’ve learned to run C D But all I really want is to trust someone G Em It ain’t easy, babe, to fix what’s torn C D But if you hold me close, I’ll start to warm G Em It’s not that I don’t want to try C D* It’s just hard when you’ve been left outside
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G D G So if you’re gonna love me, girl, you gotta know Cadd9 G D G If you take a shelter dog, you better move slow Cadd9 G I’ll need patience, And love that’s right D G I’ve been broken I don’t mean to bite Cadd9 G D G If you’re gonna love me, girl love me right Cadd9 G D G If you’re gonna love me, girl Better hold me tight
[Verse 3]
G Em But I’ll be loyal, I’ll be true C D If you show me love, I’ll follow you G Em I’ve got a heart that’s been locked away C D But I’m hoping you're here to stay
[Outro]
Cadd9* G* D* G* If you’re gonna love me, girl Better hold me tight Cadd9* G* D* G* If you’re gonna love me, girl love me right
