Lyrics

They asked me how I (Bm7)knew

my true love was (G)true.

(G13)I, of course, re (C#m7)plied

(F#m11)some thing here in (Bm7)side

can not be de (C#)nied.

They (F7)said some day you’ll (Bm7)find

all who love are (Gmaj7)blind.

(G)When your heart’s on (C#m7)fi re,

your must re al (Bm9)ize

smoke gets in your (A69)eyes.

So I chaffed

and then I (Am9)gai ly laughed,

to think that they (Gm9)doubt,

doubt my (Gm9)love.

Yet to day

(A)my love has

flown a (G13)way; I am with (C#m7)out

my (B9)love.

Now (F7)laugh ing friends de (Bm7)ride

tears I can not (Gmaj7)hide.

(G)So I smile and (C#m7)say,

“When a love ly (Bm9)flame dies,

smoke gets in your (A69)eyes.”

(Fmaj9)Yet to day

my love has (Dm11)flown a way;

I am with (Amaj7)out

my

love.

Oh, now

laugh ing friends de (Bm7)ride

tears I can not (Gmaj7)hide.

(C)So I smile and (C#m7)say,

“When a love ly flame (Bm9)dies,

smoke gets in your (C#m7)eyes.”

I (Bm7)say,

“Smoke

gets (Dmaj7)in

(D)your

(Fmaj9)eyes.”
