      Cm           G            A7         D7    Gsus4 G Dm G 
I never learned to spell, at least not well 
                                    G7           C          
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven  
    Cm         G            A7       G7    Gsus4 G Dm G 
I never learned to count a great amount 
Gm7                                        C7  F7M           
But my busy mind is burning to   use what learning  
      Em7 A7 D7                          G             G7                   Dm7    G7 
I got,       I won waste any time, I strike while the iron is hot 
             C                           G7      C 
If they asked me, I could write a book 
     G7         C           G7              C      C#dim  Dm7 G7 
About the way you walk and whisper and       look 
F  G7      C    Ab7  Dm7     G7       C     F#dim  G 
I could write a        preface       on how we        met 
C  F#dim   G       Eb7    Am7 D7       G  Dm7  G7 
So the       world would never      forget 
              C                   G7      C 
And the simple secret of the plot 
    G7      C            G7     C            C#dim Dm7 G7 
Is just to tell them that I love you a          lot 
   F    G7      C    Ab7 Dm7 G7      Cm7   C7     F 
Then the world discovers         as my      book ends 
 Dm         C     G7  Dm7   G7      C 
How to make two lovers        of friends 
             C                           G7      C 
If they asked me, I could write a book
