Something stupid (intro) (midi)

Em - A - Em - A - D

D

1. I know I stand in line, until you think you have the time

Em A - Em - A

to spend an evening with me.

Em A Em A

And if we go someplace to dance, I know that there's a chance

D

you won't be leaving with me.

D7 G - Bb

And afterwards we drop into a quiet little place and have a drink or two,

Em A Em A7 D

and then I go and spoil it all, by saying something stupid like: "I love you".

D7

I can see it in your eyes, that you despise the same old lies

G

you heard the night before,

E E7

and though it's just a line to you, for me it's true,

A - A7

it never seemed so right before.

D

3. I practice every day to find some clever lines to say,

Em A - Em - A

to make the meaning come true.

Em A Em A D

But then I think I'll wait until the evening gets late, and I'm alone with you.

D7

The time is right, your perfume fills my head, the stars get red,

G - Bb

and, oh, the night's so blue.

Em A Em A7 D

And then I go and spoil it all, by saying something stupid like: "I love you".

instrumental = verse 3 CHORUS Bb

D - Bb

I love you. (3x) ….
