Tom: C#m
|E|B|E|E|
[Verse 1]
E B C#m E
She rushes in through the front door.
F#m B E
Puts up her hair she’s running late.
E B C#m E
She takes her place at the counter.
A C#m B
Her fingers brush a stray strand from her face.
[Verse 2]
E B C#m E
I then approach to place my order.
F#m B E
She looks up at me in a daze.
E B C#m E
I say something dumb about the weather.
A C#m B
I only know her name from the badge on her chest.
[Chorus 1]
C#m A C#m B E
Ade-laide, won’t you look at me
C#m A C#m B E
Ade-laide, darling can’t you see
B
I adore you
[Intro]
Whistle
|E|B|E|E| x 2 times
[Verse 3]
E B C#m E
I glance up from the headlines.
F#m B E
She asks me what else do I want.
E B C#m E
Lays down the check before I answer.
A C#m B
A little heart drawn in Green by her name.
[Chorus 2]
C#m A C#m B E
Ade-laide, won’t you look my way
C#m A C#m B E
Ade-laide, I just want to say
B
I adore you!
C#m A C#m B E
Ade-laide, A --Ade-laide

E C#m G# C#m
I’m gonna tell her how I feel to-day

Our love is fate.

[Verse 4]
E B C#m E
I get up and push my chair in.
F#m B E
And Motion towards her with a wave.
E B C#m E
she turns away and doesn’t notice.
A C#m B
As someone from the back room calls out her name.
[Chorus 3]
C#m A C#m B E
Ade-laide, A --Ade-laide
C#m A C#m B E
Ade-laide, A --Ade-laide
C#m A C#m B E
Ade-laide, A --Ade-laide
B
I adore you
