Song Title: If I didn't love you I'd hate you
Artist: Squeeze
The last time I sent in a song, some of the chords shifted
slightly. Listen to the song to get a better idea of how
to play it just in case. :)
Please post corrections if I'm way off here.
If I Didn't Love You I'd Hate You - Squeeze
Intro |G|AGD|
If I didn't love you I'd hate you
Watching you play in the bath
A soap suds stickle back navy
A scrubbing brush landing craft
G#min
Your skin gets softer and warmer
G#min
I pat you down with a towel
F#min
Tonight it's love by the fire
My mind goes out on the prowl
If I - if I - if I - if I
If I didn't love you I'd hate you
I'm playing your stereogram
Singles remind me of kisses
Albums remind me of plans
G#min
Tonight it's love by the fire
G#min
The wind plays over the coals
F#min
Passionate looks are my fancy
But you turn the look into stone
If I - if I - if I - if I
If I didn't love you
Would you sit and glow
by the fire
If I didn't love you
Would you make me feel so
Maybe you love me
Oh...If I didn't love you
If I - if I - if I - if I
G (play verse without words)
If I didn't love you I'd hate you
Cocoa mugs sit side by side
It's time to poke at the fire
But it's not tonight, looks I find
G#min
Taking a bite on a biscuit
G#min
The record jumps on a scratch
F#min
Tonight it's love by the fire
The door of your love's on the latch
If I - if I - if I - if I
If I didn't love you
Would you sit and glow
by the fire
If I didn't love you
Would you make me feel so
Maybe you love me
Oh...If I didn't love you
Would you sit and glow
by the fire
If I didn't love you
Would you make me feel so
Maybe you love me
Oh...If I didn't love you
If I - if I - if I - Didn't - didn't - didn't - Love you - love
you - love you

----------
Footnote 1: If played on keyboard, the D must be played D-F#-A. Won't sound
right otherwise.
Footnote 2: That's right, no chord split F#. i.e., the bassist closes the
song with F#.
