Introd.: D A 
  
            D                     A 
He takes me to the places you and I used to go 
            A                   D 
He tells me over and over that he loves me so 
            D         D7               G 
He gives me love that I never got from you 
            G                D    (Db)  A 
He loves me too, his love is true 
          A     D 
Why can't he be you  
        D                         A 
He never fails to call and tell me I'm on his mind 
        A                                   D 
And I'm lucky to have such a guy, I hear it all the time 
            D                   D7              G 
And he does all the things that you would never do 
            G                D    (Db)  A 
He loves me too, his love is true 
          A     D      D7 
Why can't he be you? 
      G                            D 
He's not the one who dominates my mind and soul 
             G 
And I should love him so, 'cause he loves me, I know 
        E7              A7 
But his kisses leave me cold 
            D                                A 
He sends me flowers, calls on the hour, just to prove his love 
       A                                     D 
And my friends say when he's around, I'm all he speaks of 
            D                   D7              G 
And he does all the things that you would never do 
            G                D     (Db)  A 
He loves me too, his love is true 
                D 
Why can't he be you?
