(G major)
Verse 1
(G major) The only time I've seen
you was about (C major) a year ago (G major)
I was afraid to hold you but I
(C major) wanted you to know (G major)
I touched (D major) your tiny per (C major) fect
hand (D major) before I went uptown
(C major) I (G major) didn't pick you up because I'd
(C major) have to put (D major) you down (G major)

Verse 2
For reasons (G major) that don't make much sense
and (C major) you won't un (G major) derstand
I've stayed away for your first year
it's (C major) sort of what I planned (G major)
But I've (D major) been in your neigh (C major) bourhood
(D major) sometimes just blocks (C major) away
I (G major) didn't come to visit you (C major) because
I (D major) couldn't stay (G major)
Verse 3
There (A minor) was a baby on (C major) a plane
(D major) maybe she was (G major) two
And (A minor) she was smiling at (C major) me I (D major)
was not sure what to do (G major)
I've (D major) kept my distance from you (C major) (D major)
a year's much more than a while (C major)
And (G major) so I looked away (C major) from her
too ashamed (D major) to smile (G major)
Verse 4
When (G major) I saw you last (C major) year,
I knew (G major) that (C major) there was no mis (G major) take
Amazing things can hap (C major) pen (G major) why
(C major) just look what life can make (G major)
But life (D major) can get so hard sometimes (C major) (D major)
some feelings can't be (C major) tamed
And (G major) people get so angry (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major)
(C major) frightene (D major) d and ashamed (G major)
Verse 5
You've (G major) been a sort of secret for a
(C major) year I've told but few (G major)
Although where (C major) (G major) you are (C major) (G major) (C major) so
many must love (G major) you
And I've (D major) passed by your win (C major) dow
(D major) but haven't dared look (C major) in
Although (G major) I know I'd love you too,
I'm (C major) too scared (D major) to be (G major) gin
