Because You Love Me
JoDee Messina


Intro (Piano-then acoustic guitar)

Verse 1
                 A             E
         I don't know how I survived
                 F#m                               E
         In this cold and empty world for all this time
                D              A    E
         I only know that I'm alive
                     D    A
         Because you love me

Verse 2 (Rest of band)
                  A        (/G?)      E
         When I recall what I've been through
                      F#m                         E
         There's some things that I wish I didn't do
               D               A    E
         Now I do the things I do
               D    A
         Because you love me

Chorus
                      D
         And now that you're in my life
                C#m
         I'm so glad I'm alive
                    G#m?          F#m
         'Cause you showed me the way
               C#7                     D   E
         And I know now how good it can be
                     D    A
         Because you love me

Verse 3 (Instrumental)
                 A             E
                 F#m                               D
                D              A    E
                     D    A

Chorus
                      D
         And now that you're in my life
                    C#m
         Oh, I'm so glad I'm alive
                                  F#m
         'Cause you showed me the way
               C#7                 D   E
         And I know now how good it can be
                     D    A
         Because you love me

Verse 4 (Piano, bass, light percussion)
                      A        E
         I believe in things unseen
             F#m                       E
         I believe in the message of a dream
                 D                A    E
         And I believe in what you are
                     D    A
         Because you love me

Verse 5 (Rest of band)
                     A                E
         With all my heart and all my soul
                    F#m                      E
         I'm loving you and I never will let go
                   D               A    E
         And every day I'll let it show
                     D    A
         Because you love me

Closing (Piano only)
                     E    B
         Because you love me
                     D    A
         Because you love me
