HELP ME

VERSE:
A        Em7
Help me, I think I'm falling 
Gmaj7
In love again.

When I get that crazy feeling, 
  Fmaj7
I know  I'm in trouble again, 

I'm in trouble, 

'Cause you're a ramblin' and a gamblin' and a sweet-talking ladies man,
Cmaj7               Gmaj7
And you love your lovin',  
                      Cmaj7 A Cmaj7
Not like you love your freedom.

VERSE:
Help me, I think I'm falling, 
In love too fast.
It's got me hoping for the future,
And worrying about the past,
'Cause I've seen some hot, hot blazes 
come down in smoking ash.
We love our lovin', 
Not like we love our freedom.

BRIDGE:
Gmaj7
Didn't it feel good, just sitting there talking, 

Or lying there not talking, didn't it feel good?
Fmaj7
You danced with the lady with a hole in her stocking.
Didn't it feel good?
Didn't it feel good?

Dmaj7
Didn't it feel good?
Gmaj7
Didn't it feel good?
Dmaj7
Didn't it feel good?
Gmaj7
Didn't it feel good?

INSTRUMENTAL:

VERSE:
Help me, I think I'm falling in love with you, 
Are you going to make me go there by myself?
That's such a lonely thing to do.
Both of us flirting around, flirting, and flirting, hurting, too.
Not like we love our freedom.

CHORDS:
Asus2:        x-0-2-2-0-0
A:            x-0-2-2-2-0
Em7:          0-2-2-0-3-0
G:            3-2-0-0-3-3
Gmaj7:        3-x-5-4-3-2   (this chord is kind of hard if you don't use your 
                             thumb, so you might want to omit the low G on 6,
                             or use another fingering)
                             like 3-x-4-4-3-x, 3-x-0-0-0-2, or x-10-12-11-12-x)
Fmaj7:        x-x-3-2-1-0   (I like this so that I can embellish easily using 
                             open strings, and because it's an easy slide down
                             from Gmaj7, but you may  want to use 1x221x if
                             you're using a different Gmaj7)
Fmaj7(barre): x-8-10-9-10-x (use this one in another part, notated Fmaj7(barre))
Cmaj7:        x-3-2-0-0-x   (this chord will cause no shortage of headaches 
                             since it is used as a transition and you often
                             are on it for no more than a beat. I don't
                             recommend refingering it for that reason.)
Bbmaj7:       x-1-3-2-3-x
