View chords used in this chart
Capo 4
G
Your hand fits in mine
Like it was made just for me
C
But bear this in mind
It was meant to be
Em D
And I'm joining up the dots with the freckles on your cheeks
C D G
And it all makes sense to me
G
I know you've never loved
The crinkles by your eyes
C
When I smile
I've never loved
My stomach or my thighs
Em D
The dimples in my back at the bottom of my spine
C D G
But you'll love them endlessly
Am C G D
I won't let these little things slip out of my mouth
Am
But if I do
C
It's you
G D
Oh, it's you they add up to
C
I'm in love with you
G
And all these little things
G
You can't go to bed without a cup of tea
C
And maybe that's the reason that you talk in your sleep
Em D
And all those conversations are the secrets that I keep
C D G
Though it makes no sense to me
G
I know you've never loved
The sound of your own voice on tape
C
You're so impatient, you never wanna wait
Em D
You always tap your foot while I squeeze into my jeans
C D G
But you're perfect to me
Am C G D
I won't let these little things slip out of my mouth
Am
But if it's true
C
It's you
G D
Oh, it's you they add up to
C
I'm in love with you
Am
And all these little things
Am C G D
You'll never love yourself half as much as I love you
Am C G D
You'll never treat yourself right, darling, but I want you to
Am C G D
If I let you know I'm here for you
Am C G D C
Maybe you'll love yourself like I, like I love you, oh
Am C G D
And I've just let these little things slip out of my mouth
Am
'Cause it's you
C G D
Oh, it's you...
