[E] [A] [E] [A] [E]
I wanna tell [A] you, [E]
[A] [E] I've always wanted to tell you
[A] But I never had the [E] chance to say
I was [B] feeling my heart from the [C#m] beginning till [A] my dying day
[E]
[A] [E] I was fifteen, sixteen [A] maybe
[E] In [A] [E]
the park I was waving my arm
[A] You were wet [E] and sweaty
[B] When you sang the song that I was [C#m] screaming
[A] I wanted [E] you to
Another time was in South [A] Carolina
[E] It's always been the third on the call
[A] Please when came [E] lovin' in
[B] Can you tell [C#m] me
Who [A] were you [E] singing for?
[B] Oh my God, can you tell [C#m] me who you [A] were singing [E] to?

Phone call from your New York City [A] office
You [E] were supposedly asking to see me
[A] I [C#m]
[A] [E] wanted to
[B] But I was just only [C#m] four [A] hundred miles [E] away
Who [B] could believe that you were [C#m] calling?
I was in D.C.
[A]
I was four [E] hundred miles behind
[B] Taxi's passed in my hand
[A] Giving you my heart was [G#m] my plan
[E] I wish I could tell you
[Em] [E] My chance
I'm standing here
In the middle of a stadium in Paris, France
Can [A] [C#m] I [E] finally tell you
[A] Can I finally [E] tell you
[B] To
[C#m] [A] be my
[E] [A]
