If You Think You Know How To Love Me by Smokie
If You Think You Know How To Love Me
Hm A
Breathless drive on a downtown street
Hm A
Motorbike ride in the midday heat
D A
Dust and harm from the desert skies
E
run oh we'd run it still burned our eyes
Hm A
Oh yes we may walk on the wild wild side of life
Hm A
And our movements trace lay a stranger close by your side
D A
The shadows of the promise you can take my hand
E
Show me the way to understand
Hm E
Refr.: So if you think you know how to love me
Hm A
And you think you know what I mean
Hm A
And if you really, really want me to stay
E
You've got to leave the way
Hm A
Yes if you think you know how to love me
Hm A
And you think you can stand by me
Hm A
And if you really, really want me to stay
E A
You've got to leave the way
Hm A
Reckless night in a nameless town
Hm A
Then we moved the other side in a silent sound
D A
Beached and wept with desert waves
E
That's where we slept, knowing we'd been save
Hm A
Now you may think you can walk on the wild wild side with me
Hm A
There's a lot I can learn and a lot that I yearn to see
D A
Now you've got my life, lying in your hands
E
So it's up to you to make me understand (repeat Refr.)
A Hm E A
End: oh oh oh oh mmh mmh

Am G
Breathless drive on a downtown street
Am G
Motorbike ride in the midday heat
C G
Dust that hung from the desert skies
D
run ,though we run, it still burned our eyes
Am G
Oh yes we may walk on the wild ,wild side of life
Am G
And our movements traced by a stranger close by your side
C G
In the shadows of a promise you can take my hand
D
And show me a way to understand
Am D
Chorus: So if you think you know how to love me
Am G
And you think you know what I need
Am G
And if you really, really want me to stay
D
You've got to lead the way
Am G
Yes if you think you know how to love me
Am G
And you think you can stand by me
Am G
And if you really, really want me to stay
D G
You've got to lead the way
Am G
Reckless night in a nameless town
Am G
Then we moved out of sight with a silent sound
C G
A beach that wept with desert waves
D
That's where we slept, knowing we'd be safe
Am G
Now you may think you can walk on the wild wild side with me
Am G
But There's a lot I can learn and a lot that I've yet to see
C G
Know ,you've got my life, lying in your hands
D
So it's up to you to make me understand (repeat chorus)
