Em D A4 A/E
I'm talking, I'm talking I believe in the power of love
Em D A4 A/E
I'm singing, I'm singing I believe that you can rescue me
A9
With you I'm not a little girl with you I'm not a man
Em
When all the hurt inside of me comes out, you understand
A9
You see that I'm ferocious you see that I am weak
Em
You see that I am silly and pretentious and a freak
A9
But I don't feel too strange for you don't know exactly what you do
Em
I think when love is pure you try to understand the reasons why
A9
And I prefer this mystery it cancels out my misery
Em
And gives me hope that there could be a person that loves me
Chorus:
Em D A4 A
Rescue me it's hard to believe your love has given me hope
Em D A4 A
Rescue me it's hard to believe I'm drowning, baby throw out your rope
A9
With you I'm not a fascist can't play you like a toy
Em
And when I need to dominate you're not my little boy
A9
You see that I am hungry for a life of understanding
Em
And you forgive my angry little heart when she's demanding
A9
You bring me to my knees while I'm scratching out the eyes
Em
Of a world I want to conquer and deliver and despise
A9
And right while I am standing there I suddenly begin to care
Em
And understand that there could be a person that loves me
(chorus)
C7+ Bm7 Em C7+
Love is understanding it's hard to believe
Bm7 Em
Life can be so demanding
C7+ Bm7 Em
I'm sending out an SOS
Am
Stop me from drowning baby I'll do the rest
(chorus)
(Em)
Ooh ahh love is understanding
Ooh ahh love is understanding
Em D A4
Love is understanding it's hard to believe
A
Life can be so demanding
Em D
I'm sending out an SOS
A
Rescue me, rescue me
(Em)
It's not my business to decide how good you are for me
How valuable you are and what the world can see
Only that you try to understand me and have the courage
To love me for me
Em D
I believe in the power
A4 A
I believe that you can rescue me
