Intro
B Esus/B E/B B
I found her diary underneath the tree and started reading about me
B Esus/B E/B B
The words she'd written took me by surprise; you'd never read them in her eyes.
Edim7 B F#7 D#dim7 G#m B7
She said that she had found the love she'd waited for
E B E B
Wouldn't you know it? She wouldn't show it
[Verse]
B Esus/B E/B B
Then she, confronted with the writing there, simply pretended not to care
B Esus/B E/B B
I passed it off as just in keeping with her total disconcerting air.
Edim7 B F#7 D#dim7 G#m F#m7 B7
And though she tried to hide the love that she denied
E B E B
Wouldn't you know it? She wouldn't show it.
[Chorus]
F#7 D#dim7 G#m B7 E
And as I go through my life
C#m7 F#7 B
I will give to her, my wife
E B7sus4
All the sweet things I can find.
[Verse]
B Esus/B E/B
I found her diary underneath the tree and started reading about me
B A/B E/B
The words began to stick, then tears to fall. Her meaning now was clear to see
Edim7 B F#7 D#dim7 G#m B7
The love she'd waited for was someone else, not me.
E B E B
Wouldn't you know it? She wouldn't show it.
[Chorus]
F#7 D#dim7 G#m B7 E
And as I go through my life
C#m7 F#7 B
I will wish for her, his wife
E B
All the sweet things she can find
E E/F# B
All the sweet things they can find.
