(C)She said, “I’ve got ta be hon est; you’re wast ing your time if you’re fish in’ ’round here.

And I said, “You must be mis tak (Am)en.

I’m not fool (Fmaj7)in’; this feel in’ is real.

She said, “You’ve got ta be cra (Am)zy!

What do you take (Fmaj7)me for?

Some kind of eas

y mark?” “You’ve got wits, you’ve got looks, you’ve got pas sion, but I swear that you’ve got me all wrong,

all wrong,

all wrong,

but you’ve got me.”

I’ll be true, I’ll be use ful, I’ll be cav (Am7)a lier.

I’ll be yours, my dear.

And I’ll be long to you if you just

let me through.

This is eas y, as lov (C)ers go.

So don’t com pli cate it by hes i (C)tat ing.

And this is won (C)der ful, as lov ing goes.

This is tai lor made.

What’s the sense in wait ing?

And (C)I said, “I’ve got ta be hon est; I’ve been wait ing for you all of my life.”

For so long I thought I was a sy lum bound, but just (Fmaj7)see ing you makes me think (C)twice.

And be ing with you here makes me sane.

I fear I’ll go cra (Fmaj7)zy if you leave my side.

You’ve got wits, you’ve got looks, you’ve got pas sion, but are you (Fmaj7)brave e nough to leave with me to night,

to night, sense in (C)wait ing?

And this is eas y, as lov (D)ers go.

So don’t com pli cate it by hes i (D)tat ing.

And this is won (D)der ful, as lov ing goes.

This is tai lor made.

What’s the sense in wait ing?

And this is eas (D)y, as lov ers go.

So don’t com pli cate it by hes i (D)tat ing.

And this is won (D)der ful, as lov ing goes.

This is tai lor made.

What’s the sense in (A)wait (D)ing?
