[C#] Well back in the past when [F#] I was treated so [C#] cruelly, my love life was a time [F#] [C#] disgrace.
Needed someone to love and hold me, that's one of the reasons that I was out of place.
So this love, when she finally kissed me, had me all worked [B] up [C#] inside.
I was in [B] love but she big miss [C#] me, she up and left [B] and I almost [G#] died.
But I was young and I was far from lonely, I've been that way for a long, long year.
You're gonna [F#] call my one and only, [G#]
is [F#] that you?
You think [C#] you got the [F#] interest, come [C#] on and take the time.
[F#]
[C#] Could you know, I wanna [F#] be yours [D#] in a simple night.
[C#]
[F#m] [C#] [F#m]
[C#m] Well ain't life grand when you [E] finally hit [C#] it, I'm always [B] a sucker for a real good time.
[C#] Woke up in love [E] and I almost [C#] missed it, ain't I [B] glad that love is [G#] blind.
But I was young and I was far too crazy, been that way for a long, long time.
Needed a girl but I was [F#] just too [G#] lazy, now that I found you.
[F#]
You think [C#] you got the [G#] [F#] interest, come [C#] on and take the time.
[F#] I'm [C#] gonna [F#] be yours in a simple [C#]
night.
[B] [C#]
She made [F#] the mountains [C#] sing, words against [B] an icy [C#] sky.
And I [F#] heard bells ringing, [C#]
I think I heard an angel sigh.
And [F#] she said, there'll be times, there will be times.
[C#]
You're gonna hear the [F#] angels singing, [C#]
you're gonna hear the [B] angels sing, [C#m] they'll sing.
