   AMaj7             A6
If I keep on talking now
   AMaj7         Bm7     E    F#m7
I'd only start repeating myself
              C#m7 - F#+7
And all I can say is
   Bm7          F#+7
I love you, I love you
     Bm7            E9,E
I love you, I love you

  AMaj7               A6
If I slip and tip my hat,
     AMaj7      Bm7       F#m
I'm certain to scare you away
    DMaj7         C#m7-F#+7
And what would I say?
        Bm7            F#+7
I'd be hurtin', I'm certain

Refrain:

 Em9     A+1             DMaj7
I'd be uncool to let you know
                C#m7
That you're the one,
   DMaj7           F#+7
A fool to jump the gun,
Em9               A+1            DMaj7
Cause I've been advised by other guys
              C#m7
You've left behind,
       DMaj7                 F#+7  Bm7,E7
Your goodbyes are somewhat unrefined

            AMaj7              A6
(But) If I play my role just right,
       AMaj7            Bm7   E   F#m  E
Then tonight could be my lucky night,
    DMaj7          C#m7-F#7
And you could be mine.
      Bm7          GM7
If I present it to you,
           G#m7           C#7
With the flower in the moonlight
  F#Maj7   Bm7
Shiny and new,

             Em9        A+1    DMaj7
Where you couldn't say no tonight
   DMaj7       C#m7         C#m7-F#+7  
If I keep my heart out of sight
