From: Glen Norman Pavan 

artist:  Cheap Trick
title:  If You Want My Love
album:  One on One
key:  E/c#
tuning:   standard   E A D G

Although not the first album I'd ever purchased, One On One means a lot
to me;  it was the first album from Cheap Trick after they lost their
trendiness and strong popularity, and one I loved.  I was 7, and found
myself defending my taste in Cheap Trick and other bands for the first
time.  I've had to do it a lot since then, but remember defending
this particular album especially.
That, and I had a crush on the new bassist, Jon Brant.  :)

     (E) Ah_______  ah.     Ah______  ah.

second verse

     You hold the secrets of love in this world
     I'm hypnotized by your every word
     A special face, special voice, special smile in my life
     Cause lonely is only a place
     You don't know what it's like.  You can't fight it
     It's a hole in my heart in my heart.

chorus trice, ending on Em
