I know I stand in line until you think you have the time 
            Am              
to spend an evening with me.
D7 Am D7      Am              D7 
         And if we go someplace to dance 
   Am                   D7                 G 
I know that there's a chance you won't be leaving with me.
[Versetto]
                               G7 
Then afterwards we drop into a quiet little place 
             C           Eb     Am             D7 
and have a drink or two.    And then I go and spoil it all 
    Am               D7              G 
by saying something stupid like: "I love you."
[Versetto]
                                       G7 
I can see it in your eyes that you despise

the same old lies 
                C               A7 
you heard the night before. And though 

it's just a line to you 
                                 
For me it's true and never seemed
     D7 
 so right before
[Versetto]
   G 
I practice every day to find some clever lines to say 
             Am                  
to make the meaning come through. 
D7 Am D7     Am                  D7 
         But then I think I'll wait until
    Am            D7              G 
the evening gets late and I'm alone with you.
[Versetto]
    G7 
The time is right your perfume fills my head 
                               C
the stars get red and oh the night's so blue.
Eb     Am            D7 
   And then I go and spoil it all
   Am               D7               G        
by saying something stupid like: "I love you"
 G Am D7 Am D7 Am D7 Am D7 G

    G7 
The time is right your perfume fills my head 
                               C             
the stars get red and oh the night's so blue.
Eb     Am            D7 
   And then I go and spoil it all 
   Am               D7               G       
by saying something stupid like: "I love you"
Eb    G        Eb    G        Eb 
   I love you.    I love you. 
   G        Eb    G        Eb    G       
I love you.    I love you.    I love you.
Eb    G        Eb  G 
   I love you.
