Here's my version of Bonnie Raitt's "I can't make you love me.?
The Intro is a CHORD-MELODY (which was played on piano in the
original version). This is a bit different from many of my other
submissions - Nonetheless it's fairly self explanatory as always.

[Verse-1]
Turn down the lights,
turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with mE,
tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don't patronize
Don't patronize
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Chorus]
Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me,
if you don't (right into the intro below)

[C/E5th] >>
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Verse-2]
I'll close my eyes,
then I won't see
The love you don't feel when you're holding me
Morning will come and I'll do what's right
Just give me till then to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Chorus]

[Intro] repeat / fade (solo)
