When you find strange hands in your sweater, when G#m C# F#m your dreamboat turns out to be a footnote, I'm a man with a G#m B mission in two or three editions, andÉ (chorus) E G#m A B E G#m I'm giving you a long look ev'ryday, ev'ryday, A B E G#m A B ev'ryday, ev'ryday I write the book. 1) C#m E Chapter one, we didn't really get along, Chapter two, I think I G#m E A B C#m fell in love with you. you said you'd stand by me in the F#m middle of Chapter three, but you were up to your old tricks in Chapters G#m B four, five, and six, andÉ (chorus) E G#m A B E G#m I'm giving you a long look ev'ryday, ev'ryday, A B E G#m A B ev'ryday, ev'ryday I write the book. 2) C#m E The way you walk, the way you talk and try to kiss me and laugh in four G#m E A B C#m or five paragraphs.
