G     G7/13-    C             C7M               C6           C7M 
You give your hand to me,   and then you say, "Hello" 
            F                  Fm                                Fdim 
And I can hardly speak,   my heart is beating so

And longs to kiss your lips,    and longs to hold you tight 
             C           A7                        Dm7        G7 
To you, I'm just a friend; that's all I've ever been 
               C      Dm7   Fdim  C 
But you don't know me
