IF I SHOULD LOSE THIS LOVE

Friends, my objective here and with all the Vannelli charts
I have submitted is to have posted an accurate transcription
of his music for all of us to enjoy. If anyone feels they have a
better chord, note, passage, lyric--please feel
free to contact me at the Email address below,
and the necessary changes will be made! Since I am
a member of this site, it is possible for me to edit
 any of these charts.



small case letters above chord symbols
indicate individual notes:
c4: middle C, and notes above in that octave...
c5: C above middle C
c3: C below middle C  etc.
numbers behind notes will only be indicated
when notes enter another octave or begin a new line


intro  (fade in )

   d4  e          d  c        d  e
Cadd9


verse:

       Cadd9
I seen highways in the rain

          G/A               Am
Waved goodbye to midnight trains

        F6
I seen sweet dreams disappear

           d     e
        Cadd9
All my life


       Cadd9
I felt cold wind cut my skin


           G/A              Am
Waiting on ships that never came in


      F6                            Cadd9
But I never cried real tears until tonight


Chorus:


   Fm6                 Cadd9
If I should lose this love


   G/B              G/A     Am
If you should turn away


   G6               F6           F
I couldn't bear to face

         F/G
One more day

    Fm6               Cadd9
If I should lose this love

  E7/B               Am
I couldn't stand the pain

G6          Fmaj9                        G6
      I can do without better things in life and still get by

      Fmaj7                            G6
But If I should lose this love oh baby

                 Fm6            Cadd9
I might just lay down and die
