[C]When the rain is blowing [G]in your face
[Bb]And the whole world is [F]on your case
[Fm]I could offer you a [C]warm embrace
[D7]To make you [G7]feel my [C]love


[C]When evening shadows and the [G]stars appear
[Bb]And there is no one there to [F]dry your tears
[Fm]I could hold you for a [C]million years
[D7]To make you [G7]feel my [C]love


[F]I know you haven’t made your [C]mind up yet
[E7]But I would [F]never do you [C]wrong
[F]I’ve known it from the moment [C]that we met
[D7]No doubt in my mind where you be[G7]long


[C]I’d go hungry, I’d go [G]black and blue
[Bb]I’d go crawling down the [F]avenue
[Fm]No, there’s nothing that I [C]wouldn’t do
[D7]To make you [G7]feel my [C]love


[F]The storms are raging on the [C]rollin’ sea
[E7]And on the [F]highway of re[C]gret
[F]The winds of change are blowing [C]wild and free
[D7]You ain’t seen nothing like me [G7]yet


[C]I could make you happy, make your [G]dreams come true
[Bb]There is nothing that I [F]wouldn’t do
[Fm]Go to the ends of the [C]earth for you
[D7]To make you [G7]feel my [C]love
[D7]To make you [G7]feel my [C]love
