You don’t know me    (video)

 

    G - D

 

                            G                                                       - G7

1. You give your hand to me and then you say “hello”,

                     C                                                        - A7

    and I can hardly speak, my heart is beating so.

                 G                     - E                          Am                  - D

    And anyone could tell         you think you know me well,

                             G            - Em - Am - D

    but you don't know me.

 

                              G                                                              - G7

2. No, you don't know the one who dreams of you at night,

                          C                                                              - A7

    and longs to kiss your lips and longs to hold you tight,

                     G                  - E                              Am              - D    

    to you I'm just a friend,         and that's all I've ever been,

                             G           - G7

    no, you don't know me.

 

          C                         Bm

    For I never knew the art of making love,

                       Am                     D           G       - G7

    though my heart aches with love for you.

      Em                  Bm

    Afraid and shy I let my chance go by,

              A              A7                               D     - D7

    the chance you might have loved me, too.

 

                             G                                                             - G7

3. You give your hand to me and then you say good-bye,

                          C                                               - A7

    I watch you walk away beside the lucky guy,

                     G                - E                      Am                  - D

    to never, never know,       the one who loves you so,

                             G

    no, you don't know me.       (orig. moves to capo 3rd here)
