[A]
[D] [E] [A] I've played the game of love before
Too [D] young to know [Dm] how hard the [A] fall could be
[D] [A] I never thought I'd try again
Somehow [F#m] you [D] brought [F] the gambler [A] out of me
You can do me in this time around
Even though the odds are high we'll play them down
You may be a chance I need to take
And the hand I'm holding says it's no mistake
I [D] think it is the way [A] I'm feeling
And I know it comes from being with you
All at once my life is changing
And I know it's cause I'm falling in love with [Em] you
Love [A] with you
Falling in love, in love with you
[D] [A] [D] [A]
If this is luck then let it ride
[D] If it's the stars [Dm] they're surely [A] on my side
[D] They're [A] surely on my side
I've never been so satisfied
Oh, for all the times I have tried
These beginnings could mean more
Than the brief affair I bargained for
Little did I know when we began
My [D] time had come [E] to an [A] end
Happy is the way I'm feeling
And I know it comes from being with you
All at once my life is changing
And I know it's cause I'm falling in love [Em] with you With [A] you
Falling in
[D] [Dm]
[A] love
They're surely on my side
[D] [B] [A]
Please forgive me if I seem to be walking through a waking dream
That I never came so easily
[D] There's a freedom here that's [E] new to me
[A] Happy is the way I'm feeling
And I know it comes from being with you
All at once my life is changing
And I know it's cause I'm falling in love with [Em] you
With [A] you
Falling in love with you
