Song title: He Loves Me (Lyzel in Eb)
Original Album: Who Is Jill Scott? Words & Sounds Volume 1
Words and Music by Jill Scott & Keith Pelzer

NOTES:
Jill Scott's classic song about her former husband Lyzel Williams.
It IS in Eb, so if you want to play along, you'll have to flatten
the four chords by a semi-tone (i.e. Ebm7, Abm7, Bmaj7, Bb7).
As they can all be played as barrés, that's not too difficult.
Lianne La Havas plays a cool version of this at her live shows.

You love me especially different every time

[Spoken over VERSE chords:]
You're different and special
You're different and special in every way imaginable
You love me from my hair follicles to my toenails
You got me feeling like the breeze, easy and free and lovely and new
Oh, when you touch me I just can't control it
When you touch me, I just can't hold it
The emotion inside of me, I can feel it
Ah...
