Bb7
It wasn't always easy
Eb7
Growing up we had our fights
Ab7
Though we wouldnt say it
Fm
We wanted to play nice
Bbm7
I can safely say we're friends
Eb7
And that I love you too
Ab7
But years ago that wouldn't happen
Fm
Because I didnt get you
[Pre-Chorus]
Bbm7
Oh, it's complicated
Eb7
And I need to say it
Ab7 Fm
'Cause time is fading away
Bbm7
I should've said it sooner
Eb7
Who knows what's in the future
Ab7 Fm7
But now I need you to know
[Chorus]
Bbm7
That I love you
Eb7
You know it's true
Ab7
You don't need to say it back to me
Fm F
Because I know you do
Bbm7
And I get it now
Ebm7
You weren't allowed
Ab
The same life
Fm
That youve so gracefully endowed
Bbm
Oh-oh, oh-oh
[Verse 2]
Bbm7
I'm happy with it all now
Eb7
We both had to grow and learn
Ab7
To understand each other
Fm
And with patience we took turns
Bbm7
I'm sorry for my anger
Eb7
I was just too young to know
Ab7
The cause of your exterior
Fm
And just what you wouldnt show
[Pre-Chorus]
Bbm7
Oh, it's complicated
Eb7
And I need to say it
Ab7 Fm
'Cause time is fading away
Bbm7
I should've said it sooner
Eb7
Who knows what's in the future
Ab7 Fm7
But now I need you to know
[Chorus]
Bbm7
That I love you
Eb7
You know it's true
Ab7
You don't need to say it back to me
Fm F
Because I know you do
Bbm7
And I get it now
Ebm7
You weren't allowed
Ab
The same life
Fm
That youve so gracefully endowed
Bbm
Oh-oh, oh-oh
[Bridge]
Bbm
Oh, I love you
Eb
You love me too
Ab
Unspoken words are preferred
Fm
But it's the truth
Bbm
I'll shift the tide
Eb
Leave windows wide
Ab
We are the start, our change of heart
Fm
Will be our guide
[Chorus]
Bbm7
Oh, I love you
Eb7
You know it's true
Ab7
You don't need to say it back to me
Fm
Because I know you do
[Outro]
Bbm Eb
I do
Ab
I know you do
