[D]
What can I say?
[Bm] [B] What can I do?
[Bb] You don't know [D] I'm in love with you
[Ab] You walk on [Gm] by, too fast, good time [Gbm] of day
[Fm] [G] My
[D] eyes meet yours, [Bm]
I'm in despair
[Bb] I [Gm] have to [D] hide my face somewhere
[Bm] I [Ab] try to speak, [Gm] but words cannot [Gbm] explain

[Gbm] But then my name, [G] guess I'm gonna have to ask you
Lady, what's [D] your name?
[Gbm]
[A] Can I walk beside you [Em] in the rain?

[A] Loving you is making [Em] me live [Gbm]
[G] again
[D] I search for [Bm] ways to make a [Gm] play
When it comes down to [D] it, I run away
[Ab] To get so [Gm] near, but yet I don't [Gbm] know [Fm] how
[Em] To [G] [D] break that [Bm] wall that keeps me high
[Gm] Too fast and soon you're [D] gone, my hopes run dry
[Ab] I wonder [Gm] if you feel [Bb] the same [Gbm] way too
What [Db] can I do?
[B] I [Em] could write it in a letter
[Gbm] But then all my self would say, [G] guess I'm gonna have to ask you
Lady, what's [D] your name?

[A] Can I walk beside you [Em] in the rain?
[G] Just a little smile will [D] make my [Gbm] day
