Can I hold you       closer to me

And not feel you      goin' through me,

Somehow I'd get it;

        F#m    C#m7-5 B7      Cdim   Em     B+
I would sell my very soul and not regret it,

       A6   A     G/B  A7  Em7/9 Em7 Edim      D9         D
For to live with - out your love  is just im - pos - si - ble.
