Introduction:

difficulty
very hard |||||
       D7M                 E7           C#7                               F#m 
My arms were around him,     my eyes were aglow
 D9                         E7               C#m7(b5)         F#7 
The moment was tender, the music was low
 D9       Bm7(b5)                 E7(13)        A7M     C#7                 F#7 
    But while we were dancing                   I think you should know
               D9               Bm7(b5)         E7(13) 
I was telling him         about       you
       D7M                   E7           C#7                           F#m 
He kept coming closer,     the magic was there
 D9                             E7               C#m7(b5)               F#7 
      He wore an expression that made people stare
 D9       Bm7(b5)         E7(13)      A7M       C#7  F#7 
    It looked so romantic, but Darling, I swear
             D9                   Bm7(b5)     E7 
I was telling him               about you
   Dm7               G             C7M             Am7 
When you passed by, and caught my eye
 Dm7               E7  C7M 
You didn't say     a   word
 Em7                 B7           Em4               B(#5) 
You turned about and walked right out
                 D9                             Bm7(b5)           E7     D9   E7 
And the silence was the loudest I've ever heard
           D7M                   E7               C#7                     F#m 
Come back to me, Darling, I must make you see
             D9                       E7   C#m7(b5)                                   F#7 
That things aren't always             what they seem to be
 D9                         Bm7(b5)     A7M     C#7  F#7 
  The boy in my arms meant nothing to me
             D9         Bm7(b5)   E7     A 
I was telling him about you
