[Verse 1]
D      A7     D7              G
Don't, don't, that's what you say
A7   D           F#m           Em        A7
Each time that I hold you this way,
                 D    D7            G
When I feel like this and I want to kiss you,
Em    A         D         Em      A
baby, don't say don't.
 
[Verse 2]
D      A7    D7         G
Don't, don't leave my embrace
A7  D          F#m          Em       A7
For here in my arms is your place
                     D    D7            G
When the night grows cold and I want to hold you,
Em    A         D       D7
baby, don't say don't.
 
[Chorus]
G                 F#      G   A  D
If you think that this is just a game
    D7
I'm playing
E7
If you think that I don't mean
A7    E7       A7
Ev'ry word I'm saying
 
[Verse 3]
D      A7     D7              G
Don't, don't, don't feel that way
A7  D             F#m           Em     A7
I'm your love and yours I will stay
               D
This you can believe
D7           G
I will never leave you
Em     A       D
Heaven knows I won't
Em  A7              D      G              D
    Baby, don't say don't
                          (Don't, please, don't)

it's nice to go from D to D7 just before "If you think that this is just a game" to echo the beautiful harmonies of the Jordanaires
