Well, I know it's kind of late, I hope I didn't wake you.
    Amaj7                   C#m     Bm              E
But what I got to say can't wait, I knew you'd understand.

D            G#7                    C#7                 F#m
Every time I tried to tell you, the words just came out wrong.
D        Amaj7         E              D    Amaj7
So, I'll have to say I love you, in a song.

I just run out of things to say..I knew you'd understand.

Cause every time I tried to tell you, the words just came out wrong.
