C F G
Well, I hope that I don't fall in love with you
C F G
'Cause falling in love just makes me blue,
F C
Well the music plays and you display
G C
your heart for me to see,
F C
I had a beer and now I hear
F G
you calling out for me
C F G C
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.
C F G
Well, the room is crowded, there's people everywhere
C F G
And I wonder, should I offer you a chair?
F C
Well, if you sit down with this old clown,
G C
I’ll take that frown and break it,
F C
Before the evening's gone away,
F G
I think that we could make it,
C F G C
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.
C F G
I can see that you are lonesome just like me,
C F G
and it being late, you'd like some company,
F C
Well I've had two, I look at you,
G C
and you look back at me,
F C
The guy you're with has up and split,
F G
the chair next to you is free,
C F G C
And I hope that you don't fall in love with me.
C F G C F G F C F C F C F G
C F G C
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.
C F G
Now the night does funny things inside a man
C F G
These old tomcat feelings you don't understand
F C
I turn around and look at you,
G C
you light a cigarette
F C
I wish I had the guts to bum one,
F G
but we've never met
C F G C
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.
C F G
Now it's closing time, the music's fading out
C F G
Last call for drinks I'll have another stout
F C
I turn around and look at you,
G C
you're nowhere to be found
F C
I search the place for your lost face,
F G
I guess I'll have another round
C F G C
and I think that I just fell in love with you.
