Intro

Verse

I just don't understand

Why you're running from a good man, baby

Why you wanna turn your back on love

Why you've already given up

See, I know you've been hurt before

But I swear I'll give you so much more

I swear I'll never let you down

 'Cause I swear it's you that I adore

 And I can't help myself, babe

 'Cause I think about you constantly

 And my heart gets no rest over you

You, you, yeah, yeah

Chorus

 You can call me selfish

But all I want is your love

 You can call me hopeless, baby

 'Cause I'm hopelessly in love

 You can call me unperfect, but who's perfect?

 Tell me, what do I gotta do

 To prove that I'm the only one for you?

 So what's wrong with being selfish?

Verse 2

I'll be taking up your time

'Til the day I make you realize

That, for you, there could be no one else

I've just gotta have you for myself

Baby, I would take good care of you

No matter what it is you're going through

I'll be there for you when you're in need

Baby, believe in me

'Cause, if love is a crime, hey

Then punish me; I would die for you

'Cause I don't want to live without you

What can I do?

(do chorus chords)

You can call me selfish

But all I want is your love

You can call me hopeless, baby

'Cause I'm hopelessly in love

You can call me unperfect, but who's perfect?

Tell me, what do I gotta do

To prove that I'm the only one for you?

Bridge

Why do you keep us apart?

Why won't you give up your heart?

You know that we're meant to be together

And why do you push me away?

 All that I want is to give you love

Forever and ever and ever and ever

(do chorus chords)

You can call me selfish

But all I want is your love

And you can call me hopeless, hopeless

Because I'm hopelessly in love

You can call me unperfect, but who's perfect?

Tell me, what do I gotta do

To prove that I'm the only one for you?

Selfishly, I'm in love with you

 'Cause I've searched my soul and I know that it's you

Selfishly, I'm in love with you

'Cause I've searched my soul and I know that it's you

Selfishly, I'm in love with you

'Cause I've searched my soul and I know that it's you (do Gb, Ab, Bm)

 I'll prove that I'm the only one for you

 So what's wrong with being selfish, selfish, selfish?

 So what's wrong with being selfish?

Yeah
