TITLE: Stop! in the Name of Love
Lyrics and Chords


Stop, in the name of love
Before you break my heart

/ Am G / F G CF CF /

Baby, baby, I'm aware of where you go
Each time you leave my door
I watch you walk down the street
Knowing your other love you'll meet
But this time before you run to her
Leaving me alone and hurt
Think it over - after I've been good to you
Think it over - after I've been sweet to you

/ C Em / Gm A / F G / / C G / F -  / CF C / /

{Refrain}
Stop, in the name of love
Before you break my heart
Stop, in the name of love
Before you break my heart
Think it over, think it over

/ Am G / F G / : / CF C CF C / 

I've known of your, your secluded nights
I've even seen her maybe once or twice
But is her sweet expression
Worth more than my love and affection
But this time before you leave my arms
And rush off to her charms
Think it over - haven't I been good to you
Think it over - haven't I been sweet to you

{Refrain}

I've tried so hard, hard to be patient
Hoping you'd stop this infatuation
But each time you are together
I'm so afraid I'll be losing you forever

Stop, in the name of love
Before you break my heart
   Baby, think it over
Stop, in the name of love
   Think it over, baby
Before you break my heart
Stop, in the name of love
Before you break my heart
