||Gmaj7 |
I found her diary under-
|F/G |
neath a tree,
|C/G |
and started reading a-
|G |
bout me-
||Gmaj7 |
The words she’d written took me
|F/G |
by surprise,
|C/G |
you’d never read them in her
|G |
eyes-
||Edim7 |
They said that
|G/D |
she had found, the
|D
love she’d
B/D# |
waited
|Em
for-
Gmaj7/D |
||C |
Wouldn’t you
|G |
know it,
|C |
she wouldn’t
|G |
show it-
||Gmaj7 |
When she confronted with the
|F/G |
writing there,
|C/G |
simply pretended not to
|G |
care-
||Gmaj7 |
I passed it off as just in
|F/G |
keeping with,
|C/G |
her total disconcerting
|G |
air-
||Edim7 |
And though she
|G/D |
tried to hide, the
|D
love that
B/D# |
she de-
|Em
nied-
Gmaj7/D |
||C |
Wouldn’t you
|G |
know it,
|C |
she wouldn’t
|G |
show it-
||D
B/D# |
And as
|Em
I go
G7/D |
through my
|C
life,
Am |
I will
|D
give to
D/C |
her my wife-
||G/B
Gmaj7/B |
All the
|C |
sweet things I can
|B7sus4 |
find-
||Gmaj7 |
I found her diary under-
|F/G |
neath a tree,
|C/G |
and started reading a-
|G |
bout me-
||Gmaj7 |
The words began to stick and
|F/G |
tears to flow,
|C/G |
her meaning now was clear to
|G |
see-
||Edim7 |
The love she’d
|G/D |
waited for, was
|D
someone
B/D# |
else not
|Em
me-
Gmaj7/D |
||C |
Wouldn’t you
|G |
know it,
|C |
she wouldn’t
|G |
show it-
||D
B/D# |
And as
|Em
I go
G7/D |
through my
|C
life,
Am |
I will
|D
wish for
D/C |
her his wife-
||G/B
Gmaj7/B |
All the
|C |
sweet things she can find,
|G
Gmaj7/B |
all the
|C
sweet things
C/D |
they can find-
||G |
