[D]
[G] [D]
She knows [A] when I'm lonesome
[D]
[G] And she cries [D] when I'm sad
[G] She's up [D] in the good times
[Em] She's down [A] in the bad
[D]
[G] Whenever I'm [F#m] discouraged
She [G] knows [D] just what to do
[G]
[Em] But girl, [A] she doesn't know [D] about you
I can tell her [A] my troubles
[D] She [G] makes them all [D] seem right
[G] I can make up [D] excuses
Not [Em] to hold [A] her at night
We [G] can talk [F#m] of tomorrow
But [G] girl, I'll tell her things [D] that I want to do
[Em] But girl, [A] how can I tell her [D] about you?
[A]
[G] How can [A] I tell [D] her about you?
[G] Girl, [A] please tell me what [D] to do
[G] Everything [A] seems wrong [D] whenever [A] [Bm] I'm with you
[A] So [G] girl, won't [A] you tell me
[G] How [A] to tell her [D] about you?
[F#m] [Em]
[A] [D] How can I tell her I [A] don't miss her
Whenever [G]
[D] I'm awake?
How [G]
can I say [D] it's you I think of
[Em]
Every [E] single night [A] and day?
[F#m] [G]
But when [F#m] is it easy
[G] Telling someone [D] we're through?
[Em] Oh girl, [A] help me tell her [D] about you
[A] [G] How [A] can I tell [D] her about you?
[G] Girl, [A] please tell me [D] what to do
[G] Everything [A] seems wrong [D] whenever [C#m] [Bm] I'm with you
[A] [F#m] So [G] girl, [A] won't you tell me
[G] How [A] to tell [D] her about you?
[F#m] How [Em] can
[A] I [D] tell her
[F#m] [Em] about
[A] you?
