Intro chords:
C F C F
C F
Baby I've been drifting for so long
C G
I've had more than I can take on my own
C F
So I've been thinking about some things you said
C G
Wondering if it's time I laid my guard to rest
Am C
Cause you are just a man who wants to understand
G D
If I take a chance on you
F C
I may cry, Baby I may say I love you tonight
F G
I may let you look inside and see forever's on my mind
F C C/B Am
I may kiss you, I may hold you and never let you go
C G F C
But if you promise not to tell I'll be sweet on the down low
I have built these walls high and out of reach
Cause I don't want my heart out for all to see
When you look at me, you still see my strength
You don't know yet just how easily I break
But when the stone's unfurled, I am just a girl
So go easily on me
Chorus
Solo
Am
But you are just a man
C
So I will understand
G D
If I fall, this one's on me
Chorus
If you promise not to tell I'll be sweet on the down low
Oh oh oh I'll be sweet on the down low
