Todd Rundgren – Couldnt I Just Tell You (Guitar)

D                                           D C# B
 Keep your head on, everything will be cool,      you didn't have to make me feel like a fool

      Asus2 -  A    Asus2  -  A         F#m E  B                   F#m  E  B
When I try to say I feel the way that I do,    I want to talk with you

                       A                                    B
And make it loud and clear, though you don't care to hear, but

 E               B            A    Asus2          B              A     E  B E
Couldn't I just tell you the way I feel, I can't keep it bottled up inside

      E             B             A      Asus2              B              A       E 
And couldn't we pretend that it's no big deal, and there's really nothing left to hide

D                                      D C# B
Something sure doesn't seem right to me,      when you can turn your back whenever you please

         Asus2 - A   Asus2 - A       F#m E  B                    F#m  E B
And you stroll away, calmly bid me adieu,  why can't I talk with you

                    A                                   B
And put it in your ear, though you don't care to hear, but

 E               B            A    Asus2          B              A     E  B E
Couldn't I just tell you the way I feel, I can't keep it bottled up inside

      E             B            A      Asus2              B              A       E
And couldn't we pretend that its no big deal, and there's really nothing left to hide

  A   A#  B                                    A   A#  B                   
(Hear me out) Why don't you lend me an ear?  (hear me out) you got no reason to fear

  A   A#  B                 A                       F#m  B    A A# B
(Hear me out) I'll make it perfectly clear,  I love you

D                                              D C# B
I don't come whining with my heart on my sleeve,    I'm not a coward if that's what you believe

        Asus2 - A     Asus2 - A              F#m E  B                  F#m  E B
And I'm not afraid but not ashamed if it's true     I got to talk with you

                        A     B        A     B        A
And then I'll make it clear, make it clear, make it clear

 E               B            A    Asus2          B              A     E    B E
Couldn't I just tell you the way I feel, I can't keep it bottled up inside

      E             B            A      Asus2              B              A       E  B E
And couldn't we pretend that its no big deal, and there's really nothing left to hide
