D                  D6
I know I stand in line,
           Dmaj7              D
until you think you have the time
               Em        Em6     Em7 Em6
to spend an evening with me
Em                 Em6
And if we go some place to dance
Em7                     Em6
I know that there`s a chance
                D          D6   Dmaj7 D6
you won`t be leaving with me

D                              D7
And afterwards we drop into a quiet little place
             G           A#
and have a drink or two
Em                  A
And then I go and spoil it all
Em                    A
by saying something stupid like,
D        D6   Dmaj7 D6
"I love you"

D
I can see it in your eyes
           D7
that you despise the same old lies
                G
you heard the night before
E7
And though it`s just a line to you for me it`s true
                     A
it never seemed so right before

D                D6
I practice everyday
               Dmaj7          D6
to find some clever lines to say
Em                        Em6   Em7 Em6
to make the meaning come true
Em                     Em6
But then I think I`ll wait
             Em7        Em6
until the evening gets late
          D         D6   Dmaj7 D6
and I`m alone with you

D
The time is right
                   D7
your perfume fills my head the stars get red
               G              A#
and oh, the night`s so blue
Em                  A
And then I go and spoil it all
Em                    A
by saying something stupid like,
D        D6        Dmaj7 D6
"I love you"

D         A#
"I love you" (3x)
