Tom: Em Em D A4 A/E I'm talking, I'm talking I believe in the power of love Em D A4 A/E I'm singing, I'm singing I believe that you can rescue me A9 With you I'm not a little girl with you I'm not a man Em When all the hurt inside of me comes out, you understand A9 You see that I'm ferocious you see that I am weak Em You see that I am silly and pretentious and a freak A9 But I don't feel too strange for you don't know exactly what you do Em I think when love is pure you try to understand the reasons why A9 And I prefer this mystery it cancels out my misery Em And gives me hope that there could be a person that loves me Chorus: Em D A4 A Rescue me it's hard to believe your love has given me hope Em D A4 A Rescue me it's hard to believe I'm drowning, baby throw out your rope A9 With you I'm not a fascist can't play you like a toy Em And when I need to dominate you're not my little boy A9 You see that I am hungry for a life of understanding Em And you forgive my angry little heart when she's demanding A9 You bring me to my knees while I'm scratching out the eyes Em Of a world I want to conquer and deliver and despise A9 And right while I am standing there I suddenly begin to care Em And understand that there could be a person that loves me (chorus) C7+ Bm7 Em C7+ Love is understanding it's hard to believe Bm7 Em Life can be so demanding C7+ Bm7 Em I'm sending out an SOS Am Stop me from drowning baby I'll do the rest (chorus) (Em) Ooh ahh love is understanding Ooh ahh love is understanding Em D A4 Love is understanding it's hard to believe A Life can be so demanding Em D I'm sending out an SOS A Rescue me, rescue me (Em) It's not my business to decide how good you are for me How valuable you are and what the world can see Only that you try to understand me and have the courage To love me for me Em D I believe in the power A4 A I believe that you can rescue me
