[E] [B] [E] [A] [E]
When you write about your life, I hope I paint a [C#m] pie.
[E] Press between the pages of [C] your [G] heart.
[D] [E] When I think about your love and the Sunday dance,
The fun we [C#m] used to share, looking through the [G#m]
memories in [A] my mind.
[G#] Since [E] I've laughed and cried and [B] thought it over,
[Em] Now I [B] realize that [C#m] it's never over, [E] only set aside.
Oh, it's you, sweet [G#m]
[E] baby.
I will never be free from your embrace, sweet [G#m]
[E] baby.
Only [Em] hoping it's [C] not too [A#m] late to try [A] again.
[E] And it's [B] true, sweet [C#m] baby.
Ever lost and [E] captured by your [G#m] smile, sweet [A] baby.
I [Em] will always be right there [F#] by your side, right by your side.
[C#m]
[E] Lying [B] here alone, I'm [E] dreaming.
My mind keeps wandering, my thoughts are only you.
Wandering [C#m] through the memories in my [A] mind.
[E] How could love so [B] real have turned so [E] empty?
I just keep wondering why.
Will I [C#m] ever find the [B] love we [A] shared?
Together, [E] you and I.
Oh, it's you, [B] sweet baby.
[E] Though we [B] had such a [E] long, hard road to climb, [B] sweet [C#m] baby.
Only [G] hoping it's not too [A#m] late to try [A] again [E] with you, [B] sweet baby.
[E] Won't you try and believe in what I say, [G#m] sweet baby.
[C#m] I will [Em] always be [Am] right there by [F#] your [C#] side, right [D#m] by [C#] your side.
Right by your [E] side.
I hope it's you, only [G#m] you, [F#m] only [G#] you.
[E] Hey.
I hope it's you, only [G#m] you.
[F#m] Hey.
I [E] hope it's you, only [G#m] you, [A] only [G#] you.
[E] Yeah.
I hope it's you, only you, [A] only [C#m] you.
Only you, only you.
Hey.
[B]
[E] [B] [C#]
[E] I will never be free from your embrace, [B] sweet [C#] baby.
[A] Only [Em] hoping it's not [G] too late [A#m] to try [A]
[E] again.
I will never be free from your embrace, sweet [B] [C#] baby.
[E] Ever lost and captured by your smile.
[B] [C#m] I will always [Em] be right there by [F#] your [B] side.
Right [C#] by your side.
[A]
[E] When you write about your [A] life, I hope [E] I played a [G#m] part.
[C#m] [A] [E] Press between the pages of your heart.
[A]
[E] [A] [B] [G]
[C] Oh, [G] [D] where, [E] where, and where you would at, sweet baby.
