Verse 1:

G     D            Em
Oh.......  beautiful boy
C/G                G                D
........What did I do to win your love
Em           C/G             G          Em
  I  didn't mean to make you cryyyyyyyyy...
G                 D               G
 ...And what'll I do when morning comes?


Verse 2:

G     D                      Em
You.....   you tremble and shake
   C/G         G              D
Like an autumn leaf excpeting to fall
  Em             C/G             G          Em
....I  almost think you saw my miiiiiiiiiiiind...
G                 D         G
 ...But you don't know me at all

Chorus:

C/G
Cause I'm afraid of everything
G              C/G
everything that romance brings
Em                 D              C/G
The freely given gifts that you can't repay
C/G                               G                 C/G
Sad goodbyes in darkened halls, telephones, and most of all
    Em                  D            G
I'm scared I'm gonna break your heart some day


Verse 3:

G       D           Em
You.....You aint to blame
C/G       G                     D
....crazy love's got a mind of its own
Em           C/G              G           Em
....You can't fight it once it staaaaaaaaaarts
G        D          G
you cant help it if it don't


Chorus:

C/G
Cause I'm afraid of everything
G               C/G
everything that romance brings
Em                 D           C/G
The freely given gifts you can't repay
 C/G                            G             C/G
Sad goodbyes in darkened halls, telephones, and most of all
    Em                  D            C/G
I'm scared I'm gonna break your heart some day
    Em                  D            G
I'm scared I'm gonna break your heart some day
