[Verse 1] - - - - - I [D] know I stand in line until you think you have the time to spend an [Em] evening with [A] me. [Em] [A] - - - - And [Em] if we go some- [A] place to dance I [Em] know that there's a [A] chance you won't be [D] leaving with me.
And [D7] afterwards we drop into a quiet little place, and have a [G] drink or [Bb] two... And [Em] then I go and [A] spoil it all by [Em] saying something [A] stupid, like I [D] love you.
[Bridge] - - - - I can [D7] see it in your eyes that you despise the same old lines you heard the [G] night before... And [E] though it's just a line to you for [E7] me it's true, and never seemed so [A] right be- [A7] fore.
[Verse 2] - - - - - I [D] practice everyday to find some clever lines to say to make the [Em] meaning come [A] true. [Em] [A] - - - But [Em] then I think I'll [A] wait until the [Em] evening gets [A] late, and I'm [D] alone with you.
SCROLL DOWN HERE
[ CHORUS ] - - - - - The [D7] time is right your perfume fills my head, the stars get red and oh, the [G] night's so [Bb] blue. And [Em] then I go and [A] spoil it all by [Em] saying something [A7] stupid like I [D] love you.
[ CHORUS ] - - - - - The [D7] time is right your perfume fills my head, the stars get red and oh, the [G] night's so [Bb] blue. And [Em] then I go and [A] spoil it all by [Em] saying something [A7] stupid like I [D] love you.
[Outro] - - - - - I [D] love you... [Bb]
I [D] love you... [Bb] - - - - - I [D] love you... [Bb]
[D]
