AFRAID 
Written by Fred Rose 
As sung by Cowboy Copas 
 
A[D7]fraid to [G]tell you [G7]how [C]much I [G]care. 
Afraid I'll [D7]need you and you won't be [G]there. 
I'd [D7]love to [G]take you [G7]in[C]to my [G]heart. 
But something [D7]tells me we would only [G]part. [G7] 
I loved and [C]lost just one love a[G]go. 
I paid the [A7]cost and it hurt me [D7]so. 
A heart gets [G]careless [G7]when [C]vows are [G]made. 
I want to [D7]love you but I'm so [G]afraid
