G G11 C/G I found her diary underneath the tree and started reading about me G G11 C/G The words shed written took me by surprise; youd never read them in her eyes. G D7 B7 Em G7 She said that she had found the love shed waited for C G C G Wouldnt you know it She wouldnt show it G G11 C/G Then she, confronted with the writing there, simply pretended not to care G G11 C/G I passed it off as just in keeping with her total disconcerting air. Edim7 G D7 B7 Em G7 And though she tried to hide the love that she denied C G C G Wouldn you know it She wouldnt show it. D7 B7 Em G7 C And as I go through my life Am7 D7 G I will give to her, my wife C B7sus4 All the sweet things I can find. G G11 C/G I found her diary underneath the tree and started reading about me G G11 C/G The words began to stick, then tears to fall. Her meaning now was clear to see G D7 B7 Em G7 The love shed waited for was someone else not me. C G C G Wouldnt you know it? She wouldnt show it. D7 B7 Em G7 C And as I go through my life Am7 D7 G I will wish for her, his wife C G All the sweet things she can find C D11 G All the sweet things she can find. END
