If You Really Love Me
Stevie Wonder

(S. Wonder - S. Wright)


 Intro:

         Am7     Dm7     Gm7    Gm7/C C7   [3x]
          /   /   /   /   /   /   /   /
         Ebmaj7         Gm7/C
          /   /   /   /   /   /   /   /

 Chorus:

         Am7    Dm7    Gm7      Gm7/C  C7  Am7     Dm7   Gm7     Gm7/C C7
         If you really love me, won't you tell me
                                          (If you really love me)
             Am7    Dm7    Gm7      Gm7/C  C7  Am7   Dm7   Gm7  Gm7/C C7
         And if you really love me, won't you tell me
            Bbmaj7    Am7    Gm7  Fmaj7    Em11-5  A7+5-9
         Then I won't have to be hangin' around

 Verse 1:

                     Dmaj7         A+
         You call my name, ooh so sweet
                      Dmaj7      A+
         To make your kiss incomplete
                   Dm7      Dm9      Dm9/C    Dm7/C      G7   Bbmaj7 Eb9
         When your mood is clear you quickly change your ways

                 Fmaj7
         Then you say I'm untrue
                Am7          D7-9-5
         What am I supposed to do
              G13         G7+5 G7            Gm7/C
         Be a fool who sits alone waiting for you

 [repeat chorus]

 Verse 2:

         I see the light of your smile
         Calling me all the while
         You are saying baby, it's time to go
         First the feeling's all right
         Then it's gone from sight
         So I'm taking out this time to say

 [key change to F#]

         Then I won't have to be hangin'  around
