Intro:
Gm Bb Dm
Verse:
Gm Bb Dm x2
I've been watching your world from afar,
I've been trying to be where you are,
And I've been secretly falling apart,
I'll see.
To me, you're strange and you're beautiful,
You'd be so perfect with me but you
Just can't see, you turn every head but you don't
see me.
Chorus:
C Bb Gm x 2
I'll put a spell on you,
You'll fall asleep and I'll put a spell on you.
And when I wake you,
C Bb F
I'll be the first thing you see,
Eb Bb C slide to C/D to C/E
And you'll realise that you love me.
Yeah...
Yeah...
Verse:
Gm Bb Dm x2
Sometimes, the last thing you want comes in first,
Sometimes, the frist thing you want never comes,
And I know, the waiting is all you can do,
Sometimes...
Chorus:
C Bb Gm x 2
I'll put a spell on you,
You'll fall asleep,
I'll put a spell on you,
And when I wake you,
C Bb F
I'll be the first thing you see,
Eb Bb C slide to C/D to C/E
And you'll realise that you love me.
Chorus:
C Bb Gm x 2
I'll put a spell on you,
You'll fall asleep 'cos I'll put a spell on you,
And when I wake you,
C Bb F
I'll be the first thing you see,
Eb Bb C slide to C/D to C/E
And you'll realise that you love me.
