  I was having this discussion 
 
     A           |D       |G A|
In a taxi heading downtown 
 
D                 |G
  Rearranging my position 
 
        A
On this friend of mine who had 
 
                 |D        |
A little bit of a breakdown 
 
G A       |D
    I said   breakdowns come 
 
   |G          A
And breakdowns go 
 
  |D
So   what are you going to do about it 
 
           |G           A   |
That's what I'd like to know 
 
 
D                          G
  You don't feel you could love me 
 
      A       |D    |G A|
But I feel you could 
 
 
D                            |G
  It was in the early morning hours 
 
       A          |D         |G A|
When I fell into a phone call 
 
D                             |G
  Believing I had supernatural powers 
 
  A             |D         |
I slammed into a brick wall 
 
G A       |D                         |
    I said   hey, is this my problem? 
 
G            A
  Is this my fault? 
 
  |D
If that's the way it's going to be 
 
                     |G                A   |
I'm going to call the whole thing to a halt 
 
 
 
D                          G
  You don't feel you could love me 
 
      A       |D    |G A|
But I feel you could 
 
D                          G
  You don't feel you could love me 
 
      A       |D    |G A|
But I feel you could 
 
 
D                       |G
  I was walking down the street 
 
       A                   |D        |G A|
When I thought I heard this voice say 
 
D                               |G             A
  Say, ain't we walking down the same street together 
 
           |D       |
On the very same day 
 
G A       |D             |G
    I said   hey Señorita   that's astute 
 
A     |D
I said   why don't we get together 
 
   |G                 A        |
And call ourselves an institute 
 
 
D                          G
  You don't feel you could love me 
 
      A       |D    |G A|
But I feel you could 
 
D                          G
  You don't feel you could love me 
 
      A       |D    |G A|
But I feel you could
