INTRO: C F C F
C         F                C        F
 I don't know why you're mean to me 

C          F          D       G
When I call on the telephone 

C             F              C       F
And I don't know what you mean to me 

C                 F             C            F
But I want to turn you on, turn you up, figure you out, 

        D              G
I want to take you on 

C          F Am  D              G
These words, "You will be mine" 

C          F Am   D                            G
These words, "You will be mine" all the time 

C         F                C        F
The fool might be my middle name 

C          F          D       G
But I'd be foolish not to say

C                                F             
I'm going to make whatever it takes,

 C                 F             C            F
Ring you up, call you down, sign your name, secret love, 

C                     F               D       G
Make it rhyme, take you in, and make you mine 

C          F Am  D              G
These words, "You will be mine" 

C          F Am   D                            G
These words, "You will be mine" all the time, oh 

 Am          G    Am          G
I tripped and fell. Did I fall? 

Am       F          C                    G              
What I want to feel,  I want to feel it now 

C         F                C        F
You know with love come strange currencies 

C    F          D       G
And here is my appeal: 

C                        F                  C                      F                C        F
I need a chance, a second chance, a third chance, a fourth chance, 

C                              F
A word, a signal, a nod, a little breath 

        C                 F                   D          G
Just to fool myself, to catch myself, to make it real, real 

C          F Am  D              G
These words, "You will be mine" 

C          F Am   D                            G
These words, "You will be mine" all the time, oh 

C          F Am  D              G
These words, "You will be mine" 

C          F                       Am               D                               
These words, they haunt me, hunt me down, catch in my throat, make me pray, 

          G
Say, love's confined, oh
FINALE: C F Am D G C F Am D G
