D7            G                           G7              C

You give your hand to me and then you say hello and I can hardly speak

            C#dim
My heart is beating so
       G                 E7            Am
And anyone    could tell you think you know me well
D7            G       Am    D7
but you don't know me
D7     G
No you don't know the one who dreams of you at night
    G7       C                           C#dim

And longs to kiss your lips and longs to hold you tight
    G              E7             Am
I'm just a friend that's all I've ever been
D7            G           G7
But you don't know me
    C       Gdim     Gmaj7
For I never knew the art of making love
          Am               D7        G
Though my heart aches with love for you
    Em           Bm
Afraid and shy I let my chance go by
A7                                 D7
The chance that you might  love me too

G  O

    C       Gdim     Gmaj7
For I never knew the art of making love
          Am               D7        G
Though my heart aches with love for you
    Em           Bm
Afraid and shy I let my chance go by
A7                                 D7
The chance that you might  love me too
              G

You give your hand to me and then you say goodbye
   G7       C                   C#dim
I watch you walk away and in my heart I cry
         G           E7          Am          D7             G
To never never know the one who loves you so cause you don't know me
