[Intro]
Em   Em*   C   C*   G   Gmaj7   C   C*

[Verse 1]
      Em                             Em*
What are the things you wanted? The same as anyone?
        C                          C*
Just a hand to hold a little after all is said and done
         G                                Gmaj7
And the days were long and open ‘cause I had a view of you
               C                C*
The summer of '42 when I was in love with you

[Verse 2]
    Em                          Em*
We counted stars above us, we dreamed of Xanadu
       C                           C*
We'd sneak off to the desert, the sand over your fancy shoes
     G                           Gmaj7
The first day that I met you I wrote down in my book

[Chorus]
         C                      C*
I am in love with you, I am in love with you
G   Gmaj7
You...
         C             C*
I am in love with you
G   Gmaj7
You...
         C                        C*
I am in love with you, I fell in love with you

[Verse 3]
     Em                           Em*
The days were gone asunder, the chaos of the war
      C                        C*
Made men of everybody but our memories I adore
    G                                  Gmaj7
We named our favourite sunset but I remember very few
               C                C*
The summer of '42 when I was in love with you

[Verse 4]
     Em                              Em*
But years have turned to ages and I know you’ve someone new
   C                                   C*
I looked for you with every breath, a soldier wrecked with solitude
    G                                     Gmaj7
I climbed to the highest mountain and I shouted to our view

[Chorus/Outro]
          C                       C*           Em   Em*   C   C*
I was in love with you, I was in love with you...
          G           Gmaj7
I was in love with you...
    C            C*
In love with you
G   Gmaj7
You...
         C            C*
I am in love with you
G   Gmaj7
You...
         C                      C*
I am in love with you, I am in love with you
G   Gmaj7
You...
         C            C*
I am in love with you
G   Gmaj7
You...
         C                      C*
I am in love with you, I am in love with you
