Diary Tom: G
G G11 C/G
I found her diary underneath the tree and started reading about me
G G11 C/G
The words shed written took me by surprise; youd never read them in
her eyes.
G D7 B7 Em G7
She said that she had found the love shed waited for
C G C G
Wouldnt you know it She wouldnt show it
G G11 C/G
Then she, confronted with the writing there, simply pretended not to
care
G G11 C/G
I passed it off as just in keeping with her total disconcerting air.
Edim7 G D7 B7 Em G7
And though she tried to hide the love that she denied
C G C G
Wouldn you know it She wouldnt show it.
D7 B7 Em G7 C
And as I go through my life
Am7 D7 G
I will give to her, my wife
C B7sus4
All the sweet things I can find.
G G11 C/G
I found her diary underneath the tree and started reading about me
G G11 C/G
The words began to stick, then tears to fall. Her meaning now was clear
to see
G D7 B7 Em G7
The love shed waited for was someone else not me.
C G C G
Wouldnt you know it? She wouldnt show it.
D7 B7 Em G7 C
And as I go through my life
Am7 D7 G
I will wish for her, his wife
C G
All the sweet things she can find
C D11 G
All the sweet things she can find.
Please Come To Boston Tom: E
E Asus2 Please come to Boston for the springtime
E Asus2
I'm stayin' here with some friends and they've got lots of room
B Asus2 E
You can sell your paintings on the sidewalk
C#m Bsus Asus2
By a cafe where I hope to be workin' soon
E
Please come to Boston
B Asus2 E
She said no, boy you come home to me
[Chorus:]
E B E
Hey ramblin' boy why don't you settle down
E B E
Boston ain't your kind of town
E Asus2
There ain't no gold and there ain't nobody like me
B Asus2 E
I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee
Interlude Chords
E Asus2 E Asus2 E
C#m Bsus
Now that drifter's world goes round and round
Asus2 E
And I doubt if it's ever gonna stop
C#m Bsus
But of all the dreams I've lost or found
Asus2
And all that I ain't got
E B
I need somebody I can cling to somebody I can sing to
Additional Lyrics:
Please come to Denver where the snow falls We'll move up into the mountains so high that we can't be found Through "I love you" echoes down the canyon And we'll lie awake at night 'til they come back around
Please come to L.A., we'll live forever The California life alone is just too hard to bear We'll live in a house that looks out over the ocean And we'll see stars fall from the sky, livin' up on the hill
Time In A Bottle Tom: Dm
Dm Dm(maj7) Dm7 Dm6
If I could save time in a bottle
Gm6 A7
The first thing that I'd like to do
Dm Dm7 B- Gm7 Dm
Is to save every day till eternity passes away
Gm A7
Just to spend them with you.
Dm Dm(maj7) Dm7 Dm6
If I could make days last forever
Gm6 A7
If words could make wishes come true
Dm Dm7 B- Gm7 Dm
I'd save every day like a treasure and then
Gm A7
Again, I would spend them with you.
D Dmaj7
Chorus: But there never seems to be enough time
| D6 D G Gmaj7
| To do the things you want to do Once you find them
| Em7 A7 D Dmaj7
| I've looked around enough to know
| D6 D G Gmaj7 Em7 A7
| That you're the one I want to go through time with.
Dm Dm(maj7) Dm7 Dm6
If I had a box just for wishes
Gm6 A7
And dreams that had never come true
Dm Dm7 B- Gm7 Dm
The box would be empty except for the memory
Gm 7
Of how they were answered by you

Tom: D
Intro: D-A-Bm-G
Bm-G-Bm-A
[Verse 1:]
D A
I ran into a friend of yours the other day
Bm G
And I asked her how you've been
Bm G
She said my girl is fine; just bought a house
Bm A
got a job, real good man
D A
I told her I was glad for you; that's wonderful
Bm G
But does she ever ask `bout me?
Bm G
She said she's happy with her life right now
Bm A
Let her go, let her be
[Pre-Chorus 1:]
F# Bm F#
And I told myself I would, but something in my heart just would not let you
G
go
F#
I just wanna know
[Chorus:]
D A
What if we were wrong about each other?
Bm G
What if you were really made for me?
Bm G
What if we was `sposed to be together?
Bm G
Would that not mean anything?
D A Bm G
What if that was `sposed to be my house that you go home to every day?
Bm G
How can you be sure that things are better?
Bm G
If you can't be sure your heart is still here with me
Bm G
Still wanting me
[Verse 2: do Verse 1 chords] Your friend asked me if there was someone special in my life that I was seeing I told her there was no one in particular There's just I, myself, and me I told her that I dream of you quite often She just cut her eyes at me She said you got a home, you're very happy So just stop your meddling
[Pre-Chorus 2: do Pre-chorus 1 chords] I told her that I won't I said things were cool, but I guess I was wrong I still can't move on
[Repeat Chorus]
[Bridge:]
Bm
Now that could be my car
F#
That could be my house
Bm A
That could be my baby boy that you're nursing
Bm F#
That could be the trash that I always take out
Bm A
That could be the chair that I love to chill in
Bm F#
That could be my food on the table at the end of the day
Bm A
Hugs and the kisses, all the love we make
Bm G
What the hell do you expect me to say?
Bm G
What if it's really `sposed to be this way?
Bm A
What if you're really `sposed to be with me?
[Chorus 2x then fade-out, move chords one step higher ]
Nobody Knows It But Me Tom: G
G D
I pretend that I'm glad you went away
E D
These four walls closing more every day
C
And I'm dying inside
D G
And nobody knows it but me
G D
G D
Like a clown I put on a show
E D
The pain is real even if nobody knows
C
And I'm crying inside
D G
And nobody knows it but me
Why didn't I say the things I needed to say How could I let my angel get away Now my world is just a-tumblin' down I can say it so clearly but you're nowhere around
The nights are lonely the days are so sad and I just keep thinking about the love that we had And I'm missing you And nobody knows it but me
I carry a smile when I'm broken in two And I'm nobody without someone like you I'm trembling inside And nobody knows it but me (yeah)
I lie awake, it's a quarter past three I'd scream out at night if I thought you'd hear me Yeah, my heart is calling you And nobody knows it but me
How blue can I get? You could ask my heart But like a jigsaw puzzle it's been torn all apart A million words couldn't say just how I feel A million years from now you know I'll be loving you still
The nights are lonely the days are so sad and I just keep thinking about the love that we had And I'm missing you And nobody knows it but me
Tomorrow morning I'm hittin the dusty road Gonna find you where ever Ever you might go And I'm gonna unload my heart And hope you come back to me
Say when the nights are lonely The nights are lonely the days are so sad and I just keep thinking about the love that we had And I'm missing you And nobody knows it but me
The nights are lonely the days are so sad and I just keep thinking about the love that we had And I'm missing you And nobody knows it but me
The nights are lonely the days are so sad and I just keep thinking about the love that we had And I'm missing you And nobody knows it but me
