George Michael, A Different Corner (1986)
^{Key: :[F#m] (w: George Michael)}

INTRO: [E/B] [F#m7/C#] [E/B]

VERSE 1:
[E/B] I'd say love was a magical flame,
I'd say love would keep us from pain
Had I [F#m7/C#] been there, had I [E/B] been there
[E/B] I would promise you all of my life,
But to lose you would cut like a knife
So I [F#m7/C#] don't dare, no I [E/B] don't dare

BRIDGE 1:
[E/B] 'Cause I've never come close in all of these years,
You are the only one to stop my tears;
And I'm [F#m7/C#] so scared, I'm so [E/B] scared

INSTRUMENTAL:

VERSE 2:
[E/B] Take me back in time maybe I can forget,
Turn a different corner and we never would have [F#m7/C#] met;
Would you [E/B] care?
[E/B] I don't understand it, for you it's a breeze,
Little by little you've brought me to my [F#m7/C#] knees,
[E/B] Don't you care

BRIDGE 2:
[E/B] No I've never come close in all of these years,
You are the only one to stop my tears;
I'm so [F#m7/C#] scared of this [E/B] love

BRIDGE 3:
[E/B] And if all that there is, is this fear of being used,
I should go back to being lonely and [F#m7/C#] confused;
If I [E/B] could, I would, I swear
