Intro: Am  C  D   G

               Am   C  D
I wish I could fall in love
           G                           C       
Though it only leads to trouble, oh I know it does.
          Am                               D
Still I'd fool myself and gladly just to feel I was
   Em    D  G
In love, in love.

                Am       C        D
I wish I could feel my heartbeat rise
      G                           C       
And gaze into some gentle warm excited eyes,
          Am                               D
And give myself as truly as an arrow flies
   Em    D   G
In windless skies.

G   D          Em         A     D
Oh, I remember you in the TV  light
            Am       G            D
Holding you close to me where we lay,
D                 Em                 A       D
And now I wish I knew some of those softer nights
           Am   G               Am      D
Whispering quietly, feeling you turn to me.

                  Am            C      D
It was only last night in the winter dark
    G                                    C
I dreamed of how you loved in all your innocence,
          Am                          D
And I've never known a softer warmer feeling since
     Em  D   G
Or a truer heart.

                  Am         C     D
But maybe these dreams are leading me;
       G                            C 
Maybe love is not as gentle as my memory;
       Am                               D
Maybe time and wishful half-remembered fantasies
         Em   C   D
Are the greatest part

G   D          Em         A     D
Oh, I remember you in the TV  light
            Am       G            D
Holding you close to me where we lay,
D                 Em                 A       D
And now I wish I knew some of those softer nights
           Am   G               Am      D
Whispering quietly, feeling you turn to me.

                Am       C       D
I Wish I could feel my heartbeat rise
     G                            C
And gaze into some gentle warm excited eyes,
     Am                          D    
And give myself as truly as an arrow flies
   Em     C   D
In windless skies.

                    Am C    D
Oh, I wish I could fall in love
           G                            C      
Though it only leads to trouble, oh I know it does.
           Am                              C
Still I'd fool myself and gladly just to feel I was
    Em  C  D
In love in love...
