A        F#m
I was slowly, breaking my own rules
D
Thinking I could usually find
                 A        F#m
The words you told me, saying we'd be fine
     D
That you just need the time
N.C.
And I


[Pre-Chorus]
       A               F#m
Waited on ya, gave it over
           D
Said it'd only bring us closer
             A               F#m
Lost your love and held my own hand
       D
Thinkin', thinkin'


[Chorus]
              A                    F#m
If I love you now, you'll love me later
              D
If I wait it out, you'll love me, right?
 F#m
Later
              A                         F#m
If I hold us down, you'll change your behavior
                D
So I'll wait it out, and you'll love me, right?
 D
Later
               A                  F#m
If I love you now, you'll love me later
              D
If I wait it out, you'll love me, right?
 F#m
Later
              A                          F#m
If I hold us down, you'll change your behavior
                D
So I'll wait it out, and you'll love me, right?
D
Later


[Post-Chorus]
           A
If I love you
          F#m
If I love you
           D
If I love you


[Verse 2]
                A        F#m
It's like you taught me how to love myself
  D
When nobody else could
            A      F#m
We were blindly keepin' up the fight
     D
Now you don't even try and I


[Pre-Chorus]
          A           F#m
Waited on ya, gave it over
          D
Said it'd only, bring us closer
              A              F#m
I lost your love and held my own hand
     D
Thinkin', thinkin'


[Chorus]
              A                    F#m
If I love you now, you'll love me later
              D
If I wait it out, you'll love me, right?
 F#m
Later
              A                         F#m
If I hold us down, you'll change your behavior
                D
So I'll wait it out, and you'll love me, right?
 D

               A                  F#m
If I love you now, you'll love me later

If I wait it out, you'll love me, right?
 F#m
Later
              A                          F#m
If I hold us down, you'll change your behavior
                D
So I'll wait it out, and you'll love me, right?
D
Later


[Post-Chorus]
           A
If I love you
          F#m
If I love you
           D
If I love you
