 The guitar on the recording is out of tune,
 so playing along to the record is pretty much doomed to fail.

 Dm                        G         
 I want to write something beautiful,
              C        
 Something so beautiful
             Am    F      
 That I just can't sing it
         Bb                      F       
 without getting that incredible feeling,
 Bb Am Bb Bb/C# F 
      

 The one that just overwhelms my se---e----nses.
 

                  Dm           G    
 Because it's the only thing I have,
          C               Am                 F     F G A Bbm 
 It's the only thing that makes my life worthwhile.
 
 F                            Dm    
 I know there aren't too many people
                         Bb                 
 Who allow themselves to say what they feel,
    Am    Am    Gm      F    
 So I was watching your eyes,
    F7                   Bm       C#dim7 
 In case they just might say something.
 
 I want to think someone's beautiful,
 That they're so beautiful it's a thrill to be near them.
 Fill my stomach with butterflies,
 have me floating on air,
 Bring something out of me I didn't know was there.
 But it's such a torturous thing
 That I am not excited by anyone.
 
 I know there aren't too many people
 Who allow themselves to say what they feel,
 So I was watching your eyes,
 In case they just might say something.
