The Look of Love
Dusty Springfield
Capo: 4
I believe other charts I have seen for this song have been based on Burt Bacharach's piano chords,
rather than being charted for the guitar.
Note: The Em following the Cmaj7 in the verse is a bass line walk down. In the Dusty Springfield
recording, that walk down goes to a Bb (Edim chord) rather than a B (Em chord). For solo guitar,
I found the B more pleasing than the Bb.
Verse 1
[Am] [Am7] [Em7]
The look of love is in your eyes
[Fmaj7] [Dm7] [E7]
The look your smile can't disguise
[Am] [Am7] [Fmaj7]
The look of love is saying so much more
[Cmaj7] [Cmaj7] [Em]
Than just words could ever say
[Fmaj7] [E7] [Am7] [D7]
And what my heart has heard, well it takes my breath away
Chorus
[Cmaj7] [Fmaj7] [F]
I can hardly wait to hold you, feel my arms around you
[Dm7]
How long I have waited
[Cmaj7] [Fmaj7] [F]
Waited just to love you now that I have found you
Verse 2
[Am] [Am7] [Em7]
You've got the look of love it’s on your face
[Fmaj7] [E7]
A look that time can't erase
[Am] [Am7] [Fmaj7]
Be mine tonight let this be just the start of
[Cmaj7] [Cmaj7] [Em]
So many nights like this
[Fmaj7] [E7] [Am7] [D7]
Let's take a lover's vow and then seal it with a kiss
Chorus
[Cmaj7] [Fmaj7] [F]
I can hardly wait to hold you, feel my arms around you
[Dm7]
How long I have waited
[Cmaj7] [Fmaj7] [F]
Waited just to love you now that I have found you
|[Am] | [Am7] | [Em7] | [Em7] | [Fmaj7] | [Dm7] | [E7] | [E7] |
Don't ever go
| [Am] | [Am7] | [Fmaj7] | [Fmaj7] | [Cmaj7] | [Cmaj7] [Em] | [Fmaj7] | [Fmaj7] |
| [E7] | [Am7] | [D7] |
Chorus
[Cmaj7] [Fmaj7] [F]
I can hardly wait to hold you, feel my arms around you
[Dm7]
How long I have waited
[Cmaj7] [Fmaj7] [F]
Waited just to love you now that I have found you
[Am] [G] [Fmaj7] [Am]
Don't ever go, don't ever go I love you so
