              Intro C  G/B  Am11  Em11  Dm  Fm6  G 
        C  G/B  Am11  Em  Dm  Fm6  G  C  Cm7  Fm  F 
 
    C              Cm      F 
I'm always my own guy, I do what I need to get by 
     Ab7M      Bb        Cm7  F 
I believe my way is the only way 
    C          Cm7 
Flattery is a dull blade 
     F 
So I won't use that to get my point made 
                Ab7M    Bb 
'Cause you're far too smart 
          F     G 
I'm not smart enough 
 
Cm                   Bb 
I never answer to no-one 
  F 
I always walk, 'cause I can't run 
Ab7M              Bb         Cm7     F 
         Hand-to-mouth, and day to day 
     C             Cm7 
But my pride is killing me 
    F 
I just can't get where I want to be 
     Ab7M          Bb        F        G 
I'm lost, I need someone to show the way 
 
Bb                 F                   C 
Couldn't see for looking, staring at the sun 
  Bb       F           G 
I had no idea of what was to come 
 
C   Em     Am7     Em   Dm 
All summer it was only you 
            G 
You were a gift from above 
 
C    Em           Am7  Em      Dm 
Two hearts could only beat as one 
          Fm      G 
We could not get enough 
C           Am       Em     Dm 
I've never been completely lost 
            G/B     G 
I've never been so in love 
C    G/B    Am7     Em      Dm 
How did my heart become so soft? 
            Fm   G     C 
Like joe dimaggio's glove 
 
                  Cm7 
I don't like the telephone 
        F 
And I don't much mind if I am alone 
     Ab7M                B 
The right place and the right time 
     Eb        F 
Are here and now 
C                 Cm7 
   I live in the moment 
       F 
And I don't say things that I never meant 
       Ab7M           Bb           Eb  F  G 
And I won't promise that which I cannot do 
 
Bb                        F                 C 
     I couldn't see for looking, staring at the sun 
Bb               F        G/B 
      I had no warning of what was to come 
 
C        Em     Am7    Em   Dm 
    All summer it was only you 
          G/B   G 
Just the sound of your voice 
C       Em           Am7  Em      Dm 
   Two hearts could only beat as one 
  Fm        G 
I did not have a choice 
 
C                   Am7  Em    Dm 
  I've never been completely lost 
       G 
Never been so in love 
C       G       Am7   Em       Dm 
   How did my heart become so soft? 
           Fm  G 
Like Joe Dimaggio's glove 
 
Ab7M           G/B                Cm 
  I don't know how, I don't know why 
       Bb/D 
All I know now is that 
Eb            D           G 
I will never be the same again 
 
Solo C  Dm7  G  C  Em  Am7  Dm  Fm  G  C
