[Intro]  Amaj7  C#m  Bm  Dm  E7

Amaj7                   C#m
Well, I know it's kinda late
Bm              E
I hope I didn't wake you
Amaj7                      C#m
But what I gotta say can't wait
Bm                E
I know you'd understand
D           G#
Every time I tried to tell you
C#7                     F#m  D
The words just came out wrong
   Amaj7               E            D   D9  Amaj7  E
So I'll have to say I love you in a song
Amaj7                   C#m
Yeah, I know it's kinda strange
Bm             E7
Every time I'm near you
Amaj7                       C#m
I just run out of things to say
Bm                E
I know you'd understand
D           G#
Every time I try to tell you
C#7                     F#m  D
The words just came out wrong
   Amaj7               E            D   D9  Amaj7  E
So I'll have to say I love you in a song

( Amaj7  C#m  Bm  Dm  E7 )

D              G#
Every time the time is right
C#7                         F#m  D
All the words just came out wrong
   Amaj7               E            D  D9  Amaj7  E
So I'll have to say I love you in a song
    Amaj7              C#m
Yeah I know it's kinda late
Bm            E
Hope I didn't wake you
Amaj7                              C#m
But there's something I just gotta say
Bm              E
Know you'd understand
D                   G#
Every time I try to tell you
C#7                     F#m  D
The words just came out wrong
   Amaj7               E            D  D9  Amaj7  E
So I'll have to say I love you in a song
