D9 D6 A74  A7  Em7  G   E?  A7 
If I   told a lie, if I made you cry  
F#    Bm7(b5)      Bm   Bm7 G     F#7 
When I said good-bye, I'm sor - ry; 
Bm   A7  G6    G5  A7 A7/9   D     B7  Em7    A7/#5       D6   A7 
From the bot - tom of  my  heart, Dear, I a - pol - o - gize. 
 
 
D9 D6 A74       A7 Em7  G  E?     A7 
If I  caused you pain, I know I'm to blame; 
F#       Bm7(b5)      Bm   Bm7    G    F#7 
Must have been in - sane, be - lieve me; 
Bm   A7  G6    G5  A7 A7/9   D     B7  Em7    A7/#5       D    F#m 
From the bot - tom of  my  heart, Dear, I a - pol - o - gize.

Bm   Bm7/E     F#7        G? F#7          G?    E?    Bm 
I realize I've been unfair to  you -- please let me make amends; 
Dalt  A7 (V)            B7 
Don't  say that you forgot the love we knew; 
E7   Bm7(b5)         A7   Em7    A7 
After all, we were more than friends. 
 
 
D9 D6  A74     A7   Em7  G   E?        A7 
If I've made you blue, I've had heartaches, too; 
F#    Bm7(b5)  Bm   Bm7    G  F#7 
Now I beg of you, for - give me. 
Bm   A7  G6    G5  A7  A7/9  D     B7  Em7    A7/#5       D6   A7 
From the bot - tom of   my heart, Dear, I a - pol - o - gize. 
 
 
 D9 D6  A74      A7     Em7  G E?        A7 
Give me  back your glance, give me back ro - mance, 
 F#    Bm7(b5)      Bm     Bm7    G   F#7 
Give me one more chance, for - give me; 
Bm   A7  G6    G5  A7 A7/9   D     B7  Em7    A7/#5       D6 
From the bot - tom of  my  heart, Dear, I a - pol - o - gize.
