CAPO: 4th Fret
 
Intro: Am C D G
 
Am C D
I wish I could fall in love
G Gmaj7 C
Though it only leads to trouble, oh I know it does
Am D
Still I'd fool myself and gladly just to feel I was
Em D G
In love, in love
 
Am C D
I wish I could feel my heartbeat rise
G G/F# C
And gaze into some gentle warm excited eyes
Am D
And give myself as truly as an arrow flies
Em D G
In windless skies
 
[Refrão] Em A D
Oh, I remember you in the TV light
C G D
Holding you close to me where we lay
Em A D
And now I wish I knew some of those softer nights
C G C D
Whispering quietly, feeling you turn to me
 
Am C D
Only last night in the winter dark
G Gmaj7 C
I dreamed of how you loved in all your innocence
Am D
And I've never known a softer warmer feeling since
Em D G
Or a truer heart
 
Am C D
Maybe these dreams are leading me
G G/F# C
Maybe love is not as gentle as my memory
Am D
Maybe time and wishful half-remembered fantasies
Em D G
Are the greatest part
 
[Refrão] Em A D
I remember you in the TV light
C G D
Holding you close to me where we lay
Em A D
And now I wish I knew some of those softer nights
C G C D
Whispering quietly, feeling you turn to me
 
Am C D
I Wish I could feel my heartbeat rise
G Gmaj7 C
And gaze into some gentle warm excited eyes
Am D
And give myself as truly as an arrow flies
Em D G
In windless skies
 
Am C D
I wish I could fall in love
G Gmaj7 C
Though it only leads to trouble, oh I know it does
Am D
Still I'd fool myself and gladly just to feel I was
Em D G
In love, in love
Am C D
I wish I could fall in love
