Love Me For What I Am
The Carpenters
Chords by The Great FeRRoH

[VERSE 1]
           C           G
We fell in love on the first night that we met.
  Em                                Am
Together we've been happy, I've had very few regrets.
    F                      Em
The ordinary problems have not been hard to face,
    Am                              G
but lately little changes have been slowly taking place.
       Em                          Am
You're always finding something is wrong in what I do,
    F                              G
but you can't re-arrange my life because it please you.
G7
You've got to...

[CHORUS]
C           G             Am
Love me for what I am for simply being me.
      Dm                              G
Don't love me for what you intend, or hope that I will be;
    Em                         Am
and if you're only using me to feed your fantasy,
       Dm                            G
you're really not in love so let me go.
  G7      C
I must be free.

[VERSE 2]
If what you want is unnatural for me,
I won't pretend to keep you,
what I am I have to be.
The picture of perfection is only in your mind.
For all your expectations, love can never be designed.
We ought to take each other for everything we are.
Or leave a life we've made behind, and make another start.
You've got to...

[CHORUS]

[SOLO]

and if you're only using me to feed your fantasy,
you're really not in love so let me go.
I must be free.
