Nina Simone – Love Me or Leave Me Cover, Chords, and Lyrics

Baritone Ukulele Cover of Love Me or Leave Me by Nina Simone

[Verse 1]
     Am         Am7          Dm7       E7
Say, love me or leave me and let me be lonely
Am             Am7          Dm7          E7
   You won't believe me but I love you only
C         C7         D7sus4  G7      C         E  E7
  I'd rather be lonely than happy with somebody else
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
    Am            Am7             Dm7              E7
You might find the night time the right time for kissing
Am           Am7             Dm7        E7
   Night-time is my time for just reminiscing 
C     C7           D7sus4  G7       C         E  E7
  Regretting instead of forgetting with somebody else
 
 
[Chorus]
A7                                          Dm
  There'll be no one unless that someone is you
G7                                            C    E7
  I intend to be independently blue
 
 
[Verse 2]
          Am         Am7       Dm7          E7
Saaay, I want your love, I don't wanna borrow
Am         Am7      Dm7           E7
   Have it today to give back tomorrow
C    C7               D7sus4  G7    C         E  E7
  Your love is my love there's no love for nobody else
