Intro:
Am Am/B C C/G D/F# Gmaj7
Verse:
Am Am/B C C/G D/F#
I wish I could fall in love
Gmaj7 C
Though it only leads to trouble, oh I know it does
C C/B Am Am/G D/F#
Still I'd fool myself and gladly just to feel I was
Em D/F# G
In love, in love
Verse:
Am Am/B C C/G D/F#
I wish I could feel my heartbeat rise
Gmaj7 C
And gaze into some gentle warm excited eyes
C C/B Am Am/G D/F#
And give myself as truly as an arrow flies
Em D/F# G
In windless skies
Chorus:
G G/F# Em A D/F#
Oh, I remember you in the TV light
C G D/F#
Holding you close to me where we lay
Em A D/F#
And now I wish I knew some of those softer nights
C G Am Am/G D/F#
Whispering quietly, feeling you turn to me
Verse:
Am Am/B C C/G D/F#
'Cause only last night in the winter dark
Gmaj7 C
I dreamed of how you loved in all your innocence
C C/B Am Am/G D/F#
And I've never known a softer warmer feeling since
Em D/F# G
Or a truer heart
Verse:
Am Am/B C C/G D/F#
But maybe these dreams are leading me
Gmaj7 C
Maybe love is not as gentle as my memory
C C/B Am Am/G D/F#
Maybe time and wishful half-remembered fantasy
Em D/F# G
Are the greatest part
Chorus:
G G/F# Em A D/F#
Oh, but I remember you in the TV light
C G D/F#
Holding you close to me where we lay
Em A D/F#
And now I wish I knew some of those softer nights
C G Am Am/G D/F#
Whispering quietly, feeling you turn to me
Verse:
Am Am/B C C/G D/F#
I wish I could feel my heartbeat rise
Gmaj7 C
And gaze into some gentle warm excited eyes
C C/B Am Am/G D/F#
And give myself as truly as an arrow flies
Em D/F# G
In windless skies
Verse:
Am Am/B C C/G D/F#
Oh I wish I could fall in love
Gmaj7 C
Though it only leads to trouble, oh I know it does
C C/B Am Am/G D/F#
Still I'd fool myself and gladly just to feel I was
Em D/F# G
In love
