[C#m] [B]
[C#m] [F#]
[C#m] [B]
[F#] [A#]
[C#m] It's so nice to [B] see you again.
[F#] Now I understand.
[C#m]
If I'm surprised, [B] don't be alarmed.
I've got you [F#] in my arms.
[C#m]
I can almost [B] taste it.
[F#] And when you're dead, I [C#m] won't stand.
[B] Just look [C#m] away.
Oh, so close.
But baby, there's one thing I know.
[F#] My sweet love, the worst there [C#m] are.
But [F#m] you love my love.
[E] And [F#m] no matter what my [F#] lips say,
[C#m] You're still the [F#] only one.
[F] [D#] [C#] Never been too cunning.
[B] I'm no lewd.
[F#] But I can tell you this.
You've been my [E] only.
Ever since I left [B] you, I've been lost.
A [C#m] walking in a hall.
It's a walking, walking, walking, walking.
And if you [F#] can't live this [B] problem,
[F#] You can't work out.
[E]
[F#] [C#m]
[B] Don't be a patient.
[F#] Don't you run.
[C#] And I won't [F#] move until [E] my [C#] heart speaks.
[B] But the worst there [C#] are.
But you [B] love [E] my love.
And no [F#] matter what [E] my [B] lips say,
[F#m] You are [B] still the [F#] only one.
[G#m] [A#m]
[B] [C#] I can't [D#m] find the [C#] words.
[F#] My lips are [G#m] [C#] armed.
[B] [C#] And my speech [D#m] is [C#] slurred.
[G#] Can't [F#] even talk from [B] the [G#m] telephone.
[A#m]
[B] [C#] I think it's [D#] impromptu.
[C#]
[F#] You say my [G#m] French is [F#] [G#m] pretty [A#m] good.
[B] [C#] So that's why [D#m] I'll use [C#] a good [C] word.
[F#] [C]
[F#] [C] [F#]
[C]
[F#] [C] [Am]
[F#] [E] My [F#]
[G] [F#]
[E] [F#]
[Em] [F#m] heart speaks, but the words play
[C#] On the tip of [F#] my tongue.
[E]
And no matter what my lips [F#] say,
You [C#] are still the [F#] only one.
[C#m]
My [C#] heart [G#m] speaks, but the words play
On [C#] the tip [E] of my tongue.
[A] And no [F#] matter what my lips say,
You are still the only [E] one.
[F#] You are the only [C#m]
one.
[F#] [E]
[B] You are the [C#] only [C] [F#] one.
My heart speaks, but the words play
On the tip of my [C#m] [F#] tongue.
[E] [F#] And no matter [G#m] what my lips [E] say,
You are still the only one.
