Something stupid
Em - A - Em - A - D
D
1. I know I stand in
line, until you think you have the time
Em A - Em - A
to spend an evening with me.
Em A Em A
And if we go someplace to dance, I know
that there's a chance
D
you won't be leaving with me.
D7
G - Bb
And afterwards we drop into a quiet little
place and have a drink or two,
Em A Em A7 D
and then I go and spoil it all, by saying
something stupid like: "I love you".
D7
I can see it in your eyes, that you despise
the same old lies
G
you heard the night before,
and though it's just a line to you, for me
it's true,
A - A7
it
never seemed so right before.
D
3. I practice every
day to find some clever lines to say,
Em A - Em - A
to make the meaning come
true.
Em A Em A D
But then I think I'll wait until the evening
gets late, and I'm alone with you.
D7
The time is right,
your perfume fills my head, the stars get red,
G - Bb
and, oh, the night's
so blue.
Em A Em A7 D
And then I go and
spoil it all, by saying something stupid like: "I love you".
