Verse 1
[F] [F6] [Fmaj7] [F]
I know I stand in line until you think you have the time to spend the
[Gm7] [C9] [Gm7] [C9]
evening with me
[Gm7] [C7] [Gm7] [C7]
And if we go someplace to dance, I know that there's a chance you won't be
[Fmaj7] [F6] [Fmaj7] [F6]
leaving with me
[F7] [Cm7] [F7]
Then afterwards we drop into a quiet little place and have a
[Bb] [Bb6] [Bbmaj7] [Bb6]
drink or two
[C7] [Gm7] [C7] [C7]/[F] [F]
And then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like "I love you"
Chorus 1
[F7] [Cm7] [F7]
I can see it in your eyes you still despise the same old lies you heard the
[Bb] [Bb6] [Bbmaj7] [Bb6]
night before
[G7] [Dm7] [G7]
And though it's just a line to you, for me it's true and never felt so
[C7]
right before
Verse 2
[F] [F6] [Fmaj7] [F]
I practice every day to find some clever lines to say to make the
[Gm7] [C9] [Gm7] [C9]
meaning come through
[Gm7] [C7] [Gm7] [C7]
But then I think I'll wait until the evening get's late and
[Fmaj7] [F6] [Fmaj7] [F6]
I'm alone with you
[F7] [Cm7] [F7]
The time is right, your perfume fills my head, the stars get red and oh the
[Bb] [Bb6] [Bbmaj7] [Bb6]
night so blue
[C7] [Gm7] [C7] [C7]/[F] [F]
And then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like "I love you"
Chorus 2
[F7] [Cm7] [F7]
The time is right, your perfume fills my head, the stars get red and oh the
[Bb] [Bb6] [Bbmaj7] [Bb6]
night so blue
[C7] [Gm7] [C7] [C7]/[F] [F]
And then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like "I love you"
