  Csus4     C      Csus4    C
I try to discover
          Csus4       G       Gsus4     G
A little something to make me sweeter
   Gsus4    E  Esus4   E
Oh baby refrain
     Esus4       F     Fsus4     F
from breaking my heart

I'm so in love with you
     Csus4  G   Gsus4     G
I'll be forever blue
Gsus4             F
That you gimme no reason
                  Am
Why you make-a-me work so hard

Would you open you arms out to me
       Gsus4         E     Esus4     E
We can make love not war
            Esus4          F        Fsus4     F
And live at peace with our hearts

I'll be forever blue
Gsus4             F
What religion or reason
                     Am
Could drive a man to forsake his lover
Gsus4
Don't you tell me no
G
Don't you tell me no
G6
Don't you tell me no
G6
Don't you tell me no

Yep, this is the one. Excellent. I was trying to play it without listening to the original in a while - and not quite getting the groove - when I realised it's slightly swung! Who'd have thought it from a synth-pop group. Great song; great chart. Thanks.
