A                          Bm
Finally met Virginia on a slow summer night
F#m                               D
Thought I should forgive ya so I came back
          A
You're a sight for sore eyes
Bm
Right for those lies
      F#m          D
They save me after all

Right from the beginning, we were wrong, I found
But no one did it better, baby, pound for pound
Those heavyweight fights were right for me
To learn how to see the light clearly

              D
And it's the light I see in you

Chorus:
A          E
No, don't go
      F#m       D
I'll show you what it's like to be loved
A          E
No, don't go
      F#m       D
I'll show you what it's like to be loved
A          Bm        F#m
Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
  D
What it's like to be loved
A          Bm        F#m D
Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da

Now that things are better for me, I can laugh
At all your other lovers when you do the math
Does it make you feel sad, make you feel small?
Thank God it ain't about me anymore

I'm not coming back for round two
I just wanna love you like a friend would do
You weren't wrong for the feelings you had
But the man that I was isn't coming back

So stay, it's okay

Chorus

F#m               C#m D            A E/G#
When you say it`s over I lost my head
F#m                C#m         D
And now that we`re older I`m giving up on being
right
                              A
So I can see the other side again

Chorus:
No, don't go
I'll show you what it's like to be loved
No, don't go
I'll show you what it's like to be loved
Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da (When you said it's over)
What it's like to be loved
Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da (I lost my head)
What it's like to be loved
Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da (And now that we're older)
What it's like, what it's like
Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da (To be loved)
