verse 1 

Amaj7                 F#m           Bm7                 Eadd9  E6 
  If I could say the things I feel, it wouldn't be the same 
Amaj7                 F#m       Bm7                  E6 
Some things are not spoken of, some things have no name 
Amaj7                 F#m           Bm7                     F 
And though the words come hard to me I'll say them just for you 
Amaj7                  F#m             Bm7            E 
For this is something rare for me this feeling is so new 

Amaj7 Bm7 E You see I love the way you love me Amaj7 Bm7 E Love the way you smile at me Amaj7 Bm7 E Amaj7 F#m Amaj7/E I love the way we live this life we're in
verse 2 A7 F#m Bm7 E Long ago I heard the song that lovers sing to me A7 F#m Bm7 E And through the days with each new phrase I hummed that melody A7 F#m Bm7 F And all along I loved the song but I never learned it through A7 F#m Bm7 E But since the day you came along, I've saved it just for you
Amaj7 Bm7 E You see I love the way you love me Amaj7 Bm7 E Love the way you smile at me Amaj7 Bm7 E D D/C# Bm7 I love the way we live this life we're in
Bridge D G C Am I don't believe in magic but I do believe in you Dm G And when you say you believe in me Am E6 There's so much magic I can do verse 3 Amaj7 F#m Bm7 E Now you see me, now you don't watch me dive below Amaj7 F#m Bm7 E Deep down in your love lake where the sweet fish come and go Amaj7 F#m Bm7 F And I might sink, and I might drown but death don't mean a thing Amaj7 F#m 'Cause life continues right or wrong Amaj7 F#m When I play this Birthday song D7 I learned from you Amaj7 And you can't even sing...
