Verse 1:
G   Am  F       Em
Long night, too long and lonely
F      G
Laying there asking myself
Am                G
Hey, what's going on with you and me
Am      G    Am
 How could I be so unaware
   G        Am
So blind I could not see
G         Am
Knowing you'd be there
G         F G
And always would be
        F    C F
Is anyone to blame but me
        G         F
I've been so concerned with myself
        C
Now I need you desperately
Am      G     Am
 If you've fallen for another
     G        Am
Let's be honest with each other
      G
Is there still a chance
   C         G
And maybe hope to save our romance

Chorus:
Am       C  G
 We can't be strangers
Am       C   G
 You mean too much to me
Am         C  G    Am  C G
 I won't let this be a love in vain
Am        C  G
 Don't want the loneliness
Am     C  G
 Of just a memory
Am        C   G
 I don't want a love in vain


Instrumental:
|G |Am F | (2x)


Verse 2:
G      Am   F           Em
 Just one more night, I want to spend with you
F        G          Am
 We'll let our hearts do the talking
       G
Like we used to do
Am        G         Am
 We'll make our first kiss last forever
     G       Am
Put the pieces back together
         G
Because there's still a chance
    C         G
There may be hope to save our romance


Chorus:
Am       C  G
 We can't be strangers
Am       C   G
 You mean too much to me
Am         C  G    Am  C G
 I won't let this be a love in vain
Am        C  G
 Don't want the loneliness
Am     C  G
 Of just a memory
Am        C   G
 I don't want a love in vain

Am                  Am
 Oh, woman look what you've done to me

I'll show you how this love should be
              Am G F
Don't let it be a love in vain
Am      G      F Am
Please don't, don't you know
      G      F
You got my heart on a string
     Am
Don't let go
        G     F    Am G F
Don't let this love be a love in vain

We can't be strangers
       C  G Am
It's not our destiny
         C  G    Am C    G       Am
I won't let this be a love in vain, don't want a love in vain
        C   G  Am

      C  G Am
Of just a memory
        C  G    Am C G
Don't let this be a love in vain
