[1] Romeo had Juliet and Jack he had [4] Jill
[5] Romeo took poison and Jack fell down the [1] hill
Well I've got you and how it's gonna turn out I don't [4] know
[5] But if loving you is killing me lord what a way to [1] go

[1] If loving you is killing me lord what a way to [4] go
If [5] there's a better way to die I don't want to [1] know
Just wipe the smile off my face and let 'em lay me [4] low
'Cause [5] if loving you is killing me Lord what a way to [1] go

Now if loving you is killing me I don't wanna live
Now your love might be poison I'll take all you've got to give
Just pour it in my cup honey and let me die slow
'Cause if loving you is killing me lord what a way to go

I guess that you are killing me a little more each night
'Cause I feel I'm in heaven when you hold me tight
Throw your arms around me and let your sweet love flow
'Cause if loving you is killing me lord what a way to go
