(CN.C.)To day I (F)passed you (C7)on the (F)street (F7)and my (Bb)heart fell at your (F)feet.

I can’t (C7)help it if I’m still in love with (F)you.

(CN.C.)Some bod y (F)else stood (C7)by your (F)side, (F7)and he (Bb)looked so sat is (F)fied.

I can’t (C7)help it if I’m still in love with (F)you.

A (Bb)pic ture from the past came slow ly (F)steal ing

as I (C7)brushed your arm and walked so close to (F)you.

Then (Bb)sud den ly I got that old (Bdim7)time (F)feel you.

ing.

I can’t (C7)help it if I’m still in love with (F)you.

(CN.C.)To day I (F)passed you (C7)on the (F)street (F7)and my (Bb)heart fell at your (F)feet.

I can’t (C7)help it if I’m still in love with (F)you.

(CN.C.)Some bod y (F)else stood (C7)by your (F)side, (F7)and he (Bb)looked so sat is (F)fied.

I can’t (C7)help it if I’m still in love with (F)you.

It’s (Bb)hard to know an oth er’s lips will (F)kiss you

and I (C7)hold you just the way I used to (F)do.

Oh, (Bb)heav en on ly knows how much (Bdim7)I (F)miss you.

(CN.C.)To day I (C7)you.
