Verse 1:
C5
  It's turning out just another day
A5                      G5
  I took a shower and I went on my way
   F5
I stopped there as usual
Had a coffee and pie
When i turned to leave
             G5
I couldn't believe my eyes
 F5
Standing there i didn't 
    G5
know what to say
    F5
Without one touch
              G5            (hold)
We stood there face to face


Chorus 1:
          C5
And i was dying 
           G5
indside to hold you
  A5
I couldn't believe 
       E5
what i felt for you
F5
Dying inside i was dying inside
But i couldn't bring 
          G5
myself to touch you


Verse 2:
C5
  You said hello 
then you asked my name
A5
  I didn't know if i 
       G5
should go all the way
  F5
Inside i felt my life 
have really changed
I knew that it would 
     G5
never be the same
 F5
Standing there i didn't 
    G5
know what to say
F5
First time looked away 
       G5                  (hold)
when i whispered your name


(Repeat Chorus 1 twice)


Bridge:
F5           G5          A5
  One hello changed my life
F5
  I didn't believe in 
G5             A5
love at first sight
F5
  But you've shown me
G5         A5
  what is life
F5
  And I now i know my love 
G5                     F#5  
(i know it's coming right)
