Intro
A Dsus/A D/A A
I found her diary underneath the tree and started reading about me
A Dsus/A D/A A
The words she'd written took me by surprise; you'd never read them in her eyes.
Edim7 A E7 D#dim7 F#m A7
She said that she had found the love she'd waited for
D A D A
Wouldn't you know it? She wouldn't show it
[Verse]
A Dsus/A D/A A
Then she, confronted with the writing there, simply pretended not to care
A Dsus/A D/A A
I passed it off as just in keeping with her total disconcerting air.
Edim7 A E7 D#dim7 F#m Em7 A7
And though she tried to hide the love that she denied
D A D A
Wouldn't you know it? She wouldn't show it.
[Chorus]
E7 D#dim7 F#m A7 D
And as I go through my life
Bm7 E7 A
I will give to her, my wife
D B7sus4
All the sweet things I can find.
[Verse]
A Dsus/A D/A
I found her diary underneath the tree and started reading about me
A G/A D/A
The words began to stick, then tears to fall. Her meaning now was clear to see
Edim7 A E7 D#dim7 F#m A7
The love she'd waited for was someone else, not me.
D A D A
Wouldn't you know it? She wouldn't show it.
[Chorus]
E7 D#dim7 F#m A7 D
And as I go through my life
Bm7 E7 A
I will wish for her, his wife
D A
All the sweet things she can find
D D/E A
All the sweet things they can find.
