Somethin' Stupid

Written by C. Carson Parks

	  		
Introd.: Em7 A7 Em7 A7 D 

                             D7M             D6                        D7M                  
I know I stand in line until you think you have the time 
             Em7     G/B A7    G/B   A7 
To spend an evening with me 
    Em7           A7                G/B                  A7 
And if we go some place to dance, I know that there's a chance 
             D7M          D6   D7M   D6                      
You won't be leaving with me 
     D             D9            D7           D7/F# 
Then afterward, we go into some quiet little place 
            G7M     G6       Gm7 
And have a drink or two 
     Em7           A7 
And then I go and spoil it all 
   Em7               A7              D 
By saying something stupid, like, "I love you" 
Bridge 
       D              D9              D  
I can see it in your eyes that you despise 
              D7                 G7M    G6 
The same old lies you heard the night before 
      E                 Bm            
But though it's just a line to you 
    E7                Bm5-/7            A9      A    A7  
For me it's true, and never seemed so right before 
   D             D6                D7M            D 
I practice every day to find some clever line to say 
            Em7     G/B    A7          G/B   A7 
To make the meaning come through 
Em7                    A7            G/B           A7 
But then I think I'll wait until the evening gets late 
         D7M       D6   D7M   D6 
And I'm alone with you 
      D                   D9              D7  
The time is right...your perfume fills my head,  
             D7/F#              G7M        G6      Gm7 
The stars get red, and, oh, the night's so blue 
     Em7           A7 
And then I go and spoil it all 
   Em7                A7              Em7  D      Gm7 
By saying something stupid, like, "I love you" 
Coda 
A7 Em7  D   Gm7  A7 Em7  D 
I love you       I love you
