Em7  A7   D7M     B9 Em7      A7  A7/13- D Bm7 Em7 
If they asked me, I could write a book 
  A7    D     F#m    Bm7    Cdim   Em7   G/B  A7 
About the way you walk and whisper  and look 
Em7   A7   D    Bb7 Em  G7   Bm7 E7/9- A 
I could write a preface on how  we met 
B7     Em   B5+  Bm7    Bm5-/7    E7 Am7 A7 
So the world would never   forget 
Em7 A7  D7M    B9  Em7    A7      D Bm7 Em7 
And the simple secret of the plot 
    A7     C    C/B  A7     D     Cdim    Em7 G/B A7 
Is just to tell them that I love you   a lot 
 Em7 A7   D    D5+   A A9  A7 Am7 D7   G 
Then the world discovers as my book ends 
Gm  C#7 D   B   Em7    A7       D 
How to make two lovers   of friends
