    You don’t know me !        You don’t know me !

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

                      G                                                       - Em 

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

                  D                - B7                          Em              - A                         

    and anyone can tell,       you think you know me well,

                              D          - F#m                          Em          - A

    but you don’t know me.            (No, you don’t know me !)

 

                              D

2. No, you don’t know the one, who thinks of you at night,

                          G                                                               - Em

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

                     D                 - B7                        Em             - A

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

                                  D          - G                             D           - D7

    cause you don’t know me.       (No, you don’t know me !

 

          G            Em         D                  D7

    For I never knew the art of making love,

Em                                            A           D     - D7

    though my heart aches with love for you,

        G          Bm  - F#m                              B7

    afraid and shy           I let my chance go by,

E                                                            A                     A7

    the chance that you might love me, too. (Love me, too !)

 

              D

3. You gave your hand to me, and then you said goodbye,

                              G

    I watched you walk away beside the lucky guy,

    Em                    - D                      - B7                     Em                - A

    no, you’ll never,        never know       the one who loves you so,

                               D            - G - D - D7

    well, you don’t know me.

    though my heart aches with love for you,

    afraid and shy           I let my chance go by,

E                                                            A    - A7

    the chance that you might love me, too.
