So very catchy, yet a fairly strange structure.
And one of the best guitar solos ever -
single string, quite simple but absolutely perfect!
Amazingly I've never seen a vaguely accurate version of this one before.
Capo 1 to match the original!

You say you don't love me
A A/Ab E
Well that's alright with me 'cos I'm in love with you

And I wouldn't want you doing things you don't want to do
A Dbm B
Oh you know I've always wanted you to be in love with me
A Dbm B
And it took so long to realise the way things have to be
D A Dbm (Riff1)
I wanted to live in a dream that couldn't be real

And I'm starting to under-stand now the way that you feel

You say you don't
E B
You say you don't

Verse 3
=======
E
You say you don't love me
A A/Ab E
Well that's alright with me I'm not in love with you
A A/Ab E
I just want us to do the things we both want to do
A Dbm B
Though I've got this special feeling I'd be wrong to call it love
A Dbm B
For the word entails a few things that I would be well rid of
D A Dbm (Riff1)
I've no need to live in a dream it's finally real
D A B
And I hope you now under-stand this feeling I feel
E B
You say you don't
E B
You say you don't
E E
You say you don't love me
D
You say you don't love me
Gbm B
You say you don't love me
E
Mmm
