Key: C
Introduction:
C6(9) Ebº
They asked me how I knew
G7(9) G7 C6(9) E7(#5) F7M
My true love was true? Oh, oh, oh
F#º Em7(9)
I of course replied
Am7 Dm7(9)
"Something here inside,
G7(13) G7(#5) Em7(9) A7(9) A7 Dm7(9) G7(9) G7
Cannot be denied"
C6(9) Ebº
They said someday you'll find
G7(9) G7 C6(9) E7(#5) F7M
All who love are blind, oh, oh, oh
F#º Em7(9)
When your heart's on fire
Am7 Dm7(9)
You must realize
G7(13) G7(#5) C6(9) Bbm7 Eb7(9) Eb7
Smoke gets in your eyes
Ab7M Ab7M(#5) Fm7
So I chaffed them and I gayly laughed
Bbm7(9) Aº Bbm7(9) Eb7(9) Eb7
To think they could doubt my love
Ab7M Fm7(9) G7(9) G7
Yet today, my love has flown away
C6(9) Am7 Dm7(9) G7(9) G7
I am without my love.
C6(9) Ebº
Now laughing friends deride
G7(9) G7 C6(9) E7(#5) F7M
Tears I cannot hide, oh, oh, oh
F#º Em7(9)
So I smile and say
Am7 Dm7(9)
"When a lovely flame dies,
G7(13) G7(#5) Em7 C6(9) Fm6
Smoke gets in your eyes" (your eyes)
C6(9) Fm7M/6
Smoke gets in your eyes
Dm7 Em7 F7M G7(13) C6(9)
Smoke gets in your eyes
