Hi Timothy,

"If You Love Me" is a slow ballad by Melody Gardot, Dadi Carvalho, and Pierre Aderne. It has a straightforward 32-bar AABA structure and is built around a I-vi-ii-V progression. When I first heard it this afternoon, it reminded me of many 1950s teenage love ballads (I was there, so I ought to know) that were popular then.

The harmony is simple, and I kept it that way in the chord chart. Note that in measure 6 (and the other two similar instances), I placed the Ab7 chord on the third beat; I'm not sure if it was on the third or fourth beat in the recording but either way, it's a matter of taste.

I did not include the introduction, but I did include the short tag at the end. I hope this arrangement works for you.

Specifically, I’m looking for a lead sheet to her song: If You Love Me, Let Me Go. I’m having trouble searching and finding it, if it is here and available. She does it in Bb. Thx for any forthcoming help. I’m on an iPhone and not quite as literate at this as I should be. Apologies

You won’t find “lead sheets” here. Only iRp chord charts are allowed.
