C - G C

1. Tonight, I told all my friends goodbye,

C - G C

and I walked away so, they wouldn't see me cry.

F - C F

And hit for swinging doors as fast as I can,

C - G C

for what love had done to me shouldn't happen to a man,

A D - A D

2. And now I find myself sittin' here with you,

D - A D

and you make me wonder why I ever felt blue.

G - D G

You show understanding a few people know,

D - A D - G - D

and now that I found you I'll never let you go.

G D

3. Already it's heaven and we've barely met,

A D

and you've not even started loving me yet.

G D

‘Cause you've made it sweeter than it's ever been,

A D

and if you should love me what would it be then !

G D

+ Already it's heaven, the long search is through,

A D - G - D

and it's so good to know now that heaven is you.
