Key: D
Introduction:
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) Fº A7M C#7 F#7
But while we were dancing I think you should know
D9 Bm7(b5) Fº E7(13)
I was telling him about you
D7M E7 C#7 F#m
He kept coming closer, the magic was there
D9 E7 F#7
He wore an expression that made people stare
D9 Bm7(b5) E7(13) Fº A7M C#7 F#7
It looked so romantic, but Darling, I swear
D9 Bm7(b5) Fº E7
I was telling him about you
Bridge
Cº Dm7 G C7M Am7
When you passed by, and caught my eye
Dm7 Fº E7 C7M
You didn't say a word
Em7 B7 E4 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) Fº 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
