I Loved You When chords by Roger Creager

Vers 1:
C                   G
She stepped off the airplane,
    F                       C
And we drove straight to my house.
C                     G
An hour later we were lyin in bed,
    F                  C
And laughin right out loud.
   F                G
We talked about the old times
    C            F
And we made love again.
C            Em*
It'd been so long,
      F                      G
Since my fingers touched her skin.

Vers 2:
Am             G
We were so in love back then.
    F              C
Why didn't we work out?
     Am
Well I don't know,
    G                     F
It don't make sense to me now.


Vers 3:
         Am
She said tell me you love me.
F
I love you.
         Am
She said say it again.
     F
Well honey I do.
     Am
Then say it like you mean it,
          F
Like it's in your heart and you believe it.
                          G
I'm needing to believe it too.


Chorus:
       F                      C
Well I loved you when we were innocent.
       F                      C
And I loved you when we were young.
       Am                                 F
And I loved you when I was working on the beaches in the sun.
   F                 C              F          C
I loved you in that rundown flat we rented overseas.
       Am
And I love you now so powerful
    F
It brings me to my knees.
           Am                   G                 F
And in the night when your hair falls down around my face.
C   G     F
      I love you.


C, G, F


[Vers 4}
C                   G
Well she got up for a drink
    F                       C
And walked naked across the floor.
C                     G
Looking back at me with her playful smile
    F                  C
And I wanted her once more.
     Am                        F
Then she poured the wine and we drank it
     Am                      F
And we laid back down on the bed.
         Am
Then she curled up against me
    Em                       F                 G
And said if you want me you'll have to tell me again.


Chorus:
       F                      C
Well I loved you when we were innocent.
       F                      C
And I loved you when we were young.
       Am                                 F
And I loved you when I was working hard on the beaches in the sun.
   F                 C              F          C
I loved you in that rundown flat we rented overseas.
       Am
And I love you now so powerful
    F
It brings me to my knees.
           Am                   G                 F
And in the night when your hair falls down around my face.
C   G     F
      I love you.


Bridge:
        F                G
Then the next day at the airport
        Am
I held her close and
F                        G
Hated like hell to let her go.
F                        G
But as I did, I quietly said.


Outro:
  F                       C
I loved you when we were breakin up
         F                 C
When the truth was hard to see.
   Am
I love you now so powerful
         F
It still brings me to my knees
     Am                   G           F
Last night when your hair fell down around my face.
C   G     F
