This fingerpicking pattern is continued through the whole song with some small
variations, like one or two extra notes, or 'connecting bass notes'.
In the chorus, the chords change, but the pattern stays roughly the same, except for
the 'turnaround'.

[lyrics]
[Verse 1]
C F F/G
I hope that I don't fall in love with you
C F F/G
Cause falling in love just makes me blue
F C G C
Well the music plays and you display your heart for me to see
F C F F/G
I had a beer and now I hear you calling out to me
C F G C G
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.
[Verse 2]
C F F/G
Now the room is crowded, people everywhere
C F F/G
And I wonder should I offer you a chair
F C
Well if you sit down with this old clown,
G C
he'll take that frown and break it
F C F F/G
Before the evening's gone away, I think that we could make it
C F G C G
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you
[Verse 3]
C F F/G
Now the night does funny things inside a man
C F F/G
These old tomcat feelings you don't understand
F C G C
I turn around and look at you, you light a cigarette
F C F F/G
Wish I had the guts to bum one, but we've never met
C F G C G
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you
[Verse 4]
C F F/G
And I can see that you are lonesome just like me
C F F/G
And I'm feeling like you'd like some company
F C G C
Well I turn around to look at you, and you look back at me
F C F F/G
The guy you're with is up and split, the chair next to you's free
C F G C G
And I hope that you don't fall in love with me
[Verse 5]
C F F/G
Now it's closing time, the music's fading out
C F F/G
Last call for drinks I'll have another stout
F C G C
I turn around and look at you, you're nowhere to be found
F C F F/G
I search the place for your lost face, I guess I'll have another round
C F G C
and I think that I just fell in love with you
