But let me go My [G#m]soul is a cry, [E]without ask me why I [C#m]said Te Amo, somebody tell me what [F#]she said

Don’t it mean I [G#m]love you [E] Think it means [G#m]I love you [E] Don’t it mean [G#m]I love you

[G#m]Te Amo, Te Amo, [E]she’s scared to breathe [G#m]I hold her hand, I got [E]no choice uhh Pull me out [G#m]on the beach, danced in the water [E] I start to leave

[C#m]She’s begging me and asking [F#]why

It’s over Then she [G#m]says Te Amo Then she put her hand around [E]me waist

I told her no, She [G#m]cries Te Amo Told her I’m not gonna run [E]away

But let me go My [G#m]soul is a cry, [E]without ask me why I [C#m]said Te Amo, somebody tell me what [F#]she said

Yes, we can dance But you gotta watch [G#m]your hands, watch me all night

I move under the light, because I [E]understand

That we all need love, and I’m not [C#m]afraid to feel the love But I don’t feel [F#]that way

Then she [G#m]says Te Amo Then she put her hand around [E]me waist
