        D                      Bm
The 1st part of this song, I guess
      Em                   A
should start with something sweet
      D               Bm
cause love songs often do, and you know
Em             A
me, i'm such a geek
   G               D
For songs that I can sing to you
          G                   D
and I'm hoping this could be one
    G                     D
and I hope that you would like
            Em               A
me.. este.. like it when i'm done
 
 
    D           Bm           Em
The 2nd part is easy to mess up with
         A
something cheesy
   D                  Bm
So I better choose my words cause I
      Em            A
don't want it to be mushy...
     G                     D
coz' that's the thing with love songs
    G                D
and that is the tricky part
     G                 D
it's hard not to sound corny when you're
Em               D          D
singing from the heart
 
 
    Bm                                  A
And when the chorus comes,I must come up
 
with something clever
    Bm                                   A
for you it's just a love song but for me
 
it's now or never!
    Em              A
And though I tried my best to make it
Bm            D
beautiful and true
G             D
I could never make a song as
Em           D          D
beautiful as you...
