You still want her
written and performed by Carole King
from "Touch the sky", 1979
transcribed by Peter Eybert
E Amaj7
E Amaj7
E Amaj7
From the shelter of your solitude you see her
E Amaj7
running circles round the emptiness within
E A
and you wonder what it's been like to be her
E Amaj7
as you feel yourself awakening.
E A
Though she fills her life between with new adventures
E A
there's confusion in her eyes each time you meet
E A
you don't think she's gonna last another winter
E Amaj7
with all the snow she's wading in.
F#m B
You can't believe you still want her
F#m A B
after all the years of knowing her so well
E F#m
All the same you'd willingly consign yourself
G#m C#m A
to a love of hell.
SOLO
E Amaj7
You will think by now you'd see it in perspective
E A
she's too insecure to ever really change
E A
you've convinced yourself this time you'll be objective,
E A
you won't need any believin' in.
E A
There's no reason to believe it will be different
E Amaj7
She's still playing games and running from herself
E A
but you've always thought your love for her could save her
E Amaj7
and that's how you get taken in.
F#m B
You can't believe you still want her
F#m A B
after all the years of knowing her so well
E F#m
All the same you'd willingly consign yourself
G#m C#m A E
to a love of hell. Oh, oh.
