Capo I ****

[Intro]
G  Em  C  D  G

[Verse]
G                    
Every breath you take
               Em  
Every move you make
               C    
Every bond you break
               D   
Every step you take
G*
I'll be watching you
             G  
Every single day
                   Em 
And every word you say
               C   
Every game you play

Every night you stay
                 G  
I'll be watching you

[Chorus]

Oh can't you see, you belong to me
A7    A                     D    ***
How my poor heart aches,  with every step you take
                   G   
And every move you make
                  Em   
And every vow you break
                C   
Every smile you fake
                D    
Every claim you stake
G*
I'll be watching you

[Bridge]
Eb **                                       F
Since you've gone I've been lost without a trace
                                      Eb  
I dream at night, I can only see your face
                                     F    
I look around but it's you I can't replace
                                     Eb   
I feel so cold and I long for your embrace
                          G     
I keep crying baby, baby, please

How my poor heart aches,  with every step you take

Every move you make
                 Em  
Every breath you take
                C   
Every smile you fake
                D    
Every claim you stake
                 G  
I'll be watching you
               C   
Every move you make
               D
