The guitar on the recording is out of tune, 
so playing along to the record is pretty much doomed to fail.

C#dim7

Dm                        G
I want to write something beautiful,
             C
Something so beautiful
            Am    F
That I just can't sing it
        Bb                      F
without getting that incredible feeling,
    Bb                Am         Bb  Bb/C#  F
The one that just overwhelms my se---e----nses.
                 Dm           G
Because it's the only thing I have,
         C               Am                 F     F G A Bbm
It's the only thing that makes my life worthwhile.

F                            Dm
I know there aren't too many people
                        Bb
Who allow themselves to say what they feel,
   Am    Am    Gm      F
So I was watching your eyes,
   F7                   Bm       C#dim7
In case they just might say something.

I want to think someone's beautiful,
That they're so beautiful it's a thrill to be near them.
Fill my stomach with butterflies,
have me floating on air,
Bring something out of me I didn't know was there.
But it's such a torturous thing
That I am not excited by anyone.

I know there aren't too many people
Who allow themselves to say what they feel,
So I was watching your eyes,
In case they just might say something.
