Em  D  A4  A/E
I'm talking, I'm talking I believe in the power of love
Em               D                       A4                        A/E
I'm singing, I'm singing I believe that you can rescue me


A9
With you I'm not a little girl with you I'm not a man
Em
When all the hurt inside of me comes out, you understand
        A9
You see that I'm ferocious you see that I am weak
        Em
You see that I am silly and pretentious and a freak
          A9
But I don't feel too strange for you don't know exactly what you do
Em
I think when love is pure you try to understand the reasons why
A9
And I prefer this mystery it cancels out my misery 
        Em
And gives me hope that there could be a person that loves me

Chorus:
            Em        D                             A4                         A
Rescue me it's hard to believe your love has given me hope
            Em       D                            A4                      A
Rescue me it's hard to believe I'm drowning, baby throw out your rope


A9
With you I'm not a fascist can't play you like a toy
        Em
And when I need to dominate you're not my little boy
        A9
You see that I am hungry for a life of understanding
        Em
And you forgive my angry little heart when she's demanding
       A9
You bring me to my knees while I'm scratching out the eyes
        Em
Of a world I want to conquer and deliver and despise
        A9
And right while I am standing there I suddenly begin to care
        Em
And understand that there could be a person that loves me

(chorus)


C7M      Bm7    Em                             C7M
Love is understanding it's hard to believe
              Bm7  Em
Life can be      so demanding
       C7M      Bm7   Em
I'm sending out an SOS
Am
Stop me from drowning baby I'll do the rest

(chorus)


( Em )
Ooh ahh love is understanding

Ooh ahh love is understanding


Em                   D                                A4
Love is understanding it's hard to believe
              A
Life can be so demanding
       Em                   D
I'm sending out an SOS
                              A
Rescue me, rescue me


( Em )
It's not my business to decide how good you are for me

How valuable you are and what the world can see

Only that you try to understand me and have the courage 

To love me for me


       Em             D
I believe in the power
       A4                        A
I believe that you can rescue me
