Chords for Charlie Puth Covers Bonnie Raitt’s “I Can’t Make You Love Me” Live on the Stern Show

What is it about this Bonnie Raitt song?
Why are you doing this cover out of all the covers you guys could possibly do?
I think I just wanted to play the granddaddy song of them all,
like the most beautiful, tormented, _ but still,
like you don't know [Gb] what you want your heart to feel when [Ab] you hear this because it's so
beautiful musically but it's such a painful message [D] to hear that you can't make somebody love you.
And I just don't know if there will ever be a song that's written [Ab] _ _ like this.
I think this song took the slot [B] and _ _ it's _ _ _ just a _ song that I wish that I wrote quite honestly.
And as you say, it is the most frustrating experience.
I can't make you love me.
And the idea of her standing before a guy saying it _ is pretty powerful stuff.
And yes, and I hope I can do it.
I won't do it as well as her, but I'll sure try as hell. _ _ _ _ _ _

_ [Gb] _ Cause I can't make you love me if [Abm] you don't. _
_ _ _ [Ab] You [B] can't _ make your [Gb] heart feel [Bbm] something _ [Gb] it _ [Db] _ [Ebm] won't.
Here in [B] the dark, _ [Eb] in these final _ hours, I will lay down [B] my heart [Bbm] and I'll [Eb] feel the power.
_ [E] But you _ won't _ know [Db] who you [Db] want.
Cause I [Gb] can't make you love me [Ab] _ _ _

_ _ _ _ [Abm] _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ _ [B] I close my [Eb] _ eyes _ and I won't [B] see _ the [Gb] love you don't [Bbm] feel _ [Ebm] when you're holding _
[Abm] me.
_ _ [Gb] Morning will [Ebm] come [Eb] _ and I'll do what's [Gb] right.
_ _ Just give me till [Bbm] _ then [Eb] to give up this [Ab] fight.
_ _ _ _ And I will give up this [Gb] _ _ fight.
_ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _
[Bbm] _ Cause I [B] can't make you [Gb] love me if [Abm] you don't. _
_ _ You [B] can't make your [Gb] heart feel something it _ won't.
_ [Ebm] Here in [B] the dark, _ [Bbm] in these [Eb] final _ hours, I will lay down my [Gb] _ heart [Bbm] and I'll feel the [Ebm] power.
_ [E] But you _ won't _ know [Db] who you _ want.
_ Cause I [B] can't make you [Gb] love _ _ [Abm] me _ _ _ if [B] you _ [Ebm] _ _
don't. _ _ _ _ _ _
