Verse 1
Am 
 (A minor) Ooh
My heart has been trying
C 
to ex (C major) press itself
Am 
And it's really gettin'  (A minor) me  down
There's a strange effect,
C 
that comes  (C major) over me
Am 
Whenever you're around  (A minor) 

Verse 2

I have so much confidence,

when I'm by myself

It's like my nerves

wore an armored coat

Verse 3

But baby now,

you're such a charmer

You melt that coat of armor

And the words from my heart

Get caught up in my throat

Maybe, I better write a note

Verse 4
Am 
My  (A minor) heart is gettin' discouraged,
C 
with  (C major) giving me
Am 
Line after line, after line  (A minor) 
But my lips can't relate,
C 
what my  (C major) heart has to say
Am 
They stutter and stammer each time  (A minor) 

Verse 5

If I don't tell you soon,

what my heart wants to say

My chance will get more remote

Verse 6
E 
Am 
 (E major) But each time  (A minor) you've
D 
given me the  (D major) opportunity
E 
D 
The  (E major) words from my heart  (D major) 
Am 
Get  (A minor) caught up in my throat
Maybe, I better write a note- ah

Interlude 1

Ooh

Verse 7

I make the same  (A minor) promises,
C 
Am 
to my heart  (C major) every morn (A minor) ing- ah
C 
Am 
 (C major) That the very next time we met  (A minor) 
I would tell you that I loved ya,
C 
and  (C major) make you mine
Am 
By the time the sun starts to set  (A minor) 

Verse 8

I rehearsed my lines, a thousand times

Read some sweet poetry, I could quote

Verse 9
Am 
But when you  (A minor) open you're
door to greet me
D 
Smil (D major) in' oh so sweetly
E 
D 
The  (E major) words from my heart  (D major) 
Am 
Get  (A minor) caught up in my throat
I think, I better write a note
