Love Me Now

Key of G · Chords: I V

Verse 1

G
If you dare sweet thoughts about me why not whisper them to me
        D                                            G
For you know it'd make me happy and glad as glad can be
If you wait till I am sleeping ne'er to wake to hear again
           D                                              G
There'd be walls of earth between us and I can't hear you then

Chorus

If you're ever gonna love me, love me now while I can know
All the sweet and tender feelings that from real affections flow
Love me now while I am living do not wait till I am gone
And they chisel it in marble, warm the words in ice cold stone

Verse 2

I won't need your kind caresses when the grass grows o'er my face
I won't crave your love or kisses in my last cold resting place
So then if you love me any, if it's but a little bit
Let me know while I am living so I can treasure it.
