"Just Friends" by Vanessa Williams

Here is my chords transcription of this Vanessa's song. 
Intro: Bbm7>Bm7

Verse 1:
Bm7              D/E                      A7+/9 A7+ 
Here we are once again, it's the same old story
Bm7               D/E                     A7+/9 A7+ 
You and I, me and you claiming we're just friends
Bm7               D/E                        C#7          
When are we gonna learn that we don't have a choice?
                    F#m  E        D7+            D/E     
We both know how it ends    so we just choose to pretend

Chorus:
     A7+               D7+          A7+                  D7+       
In a way it's all secondary for the way that things have been
        A7+             D7+     C#m7 B/Eb  Bm7/D  
We fall out of love and back in love again uhh
         Dm        A/C#      Bm7       D/E        G7+  A7+           
We'll go round and round and still say we're just friends


Verse 2:
Bm7              D/E                      A7+/9 A7+ 
Gotta stop, gotta chill, makes no sense to be falling
Bm7                D/E                     A7+/9 A7+ 
You got her, I got him, should not even be calling
Bm7              D/E                      C#7          
We can try if we want but we don't have a choice
                 F#m  E      D7+                      D/E     
'Bout the way we feel,  it's hard to stop when something's real

Chorus:
     A7+               D7+          A7+                  D7+       
In a way it's all secondary for the way that things have been
        A7+                 D7+     C#m7  B/Eb   Bm7/D  
We fall out of the love and back in love  again  mmm
     A7+               D7+          A7+                  D7+       
In a way it's all kind of scary, the things that we can't admit
        A7+                 D7+     C#m7  B/Eb   Bm7/D  
We fall out of the love and back in love  again  mmm
         Dm        A/C#       Bm7       D/E        G7+     A7+           
We'll go round and round and  still say we're just friends uuh

Bridge:
D7+                               A/C#
Still got the charming I miss the running my heart in
            G7+                            A7+   C#7   D7+   D/E     
I must stay away from your arms so I don't fall, fall, fall, fall

Guitar solo: Chorus

Chorus:
     A7+                  D7+               A7+           D7+
In a way it's all kind of scary, the things that we can't admit
        A7+                 D7+     C#m7  B/Eb  Bm7/D  
We fall out of the love and back in love  again
         Dm        A/C#      Bm7   D/E               
We'll go round and round and still say
         Dm        A/C#      Bm7   D/E                
We'll go round and round and still say
         Dm        A/C#      Bm7   D/E 
We'll go round and round and still say
           G7+  A7+       G7+   A7+
We're just friends,  just friends

Dolce Maria
dagli occhi puliti, dagli occhi bagnati
è tempo d'andare e presto sentirai
profumo di mattino e il tordo canterà
volandoti vicino .... non voltarti più.
E qualcuno se vorrai vestito di poesia
ti coprirà d'amore senza chiederti di più
e t'accarezzerà dolcissima Maria.

Gm            F6           Eb7+
   Don’t rush me just this once

I want to make this moment last
Gm            F6               Eb7+    
Slow down the pace, there’s no hurry
  Cm/A      D7      Gm         F6
I can’t let another pass by me again
       Eb7+          Bb                D4 D
Let me be the one to say when I’ve had enough

Just let me close my eyes, memorize
The way things are this minute
So when you’re gone I can go on
If memory can hold within it what I’m feeling
Should time try fading or stealing something away

CHORUS:
     Eb                F
Hold on, nothing’s the same
        D/F#            Gm   F6
Tell me why I feel this way
Eb                     Bb             Dm  | F  Bb |

All along I’ve been the pretender
    D/F#               Gm    F6
But now that’s gone forever
Eb            Bb                Dm
Nobody’s ever loved me like you do
D
Nobody’s broken through


Got to concentrate, file away
Every last detail
Don’t want to lost what’s going down
I want to remember everything I'm feeling
