If I had tak-en the time

-5   -5   -4  -4 -5   6
To write down a few lines.

6   -4  5    -5   6   -6    4    4    -4  5
Eve-ry time that you cross this heart of mine

3   5    -4   4  -4 5  -5
I’d put them all in a book

-5   -5   -5   -4    5    -5   6
How much time would that have took

 6    6   -4   5    -5  6  -6  4  4    -4   5
The words ‘n years have a way of slip-ping back


-6 -4   -4  4     -6   -4   3    4     -4  5  6
Oh no! Too bad, there goes the chance that I had

I could have writ-ten a play so sweet and so

fun-ny

Writ-ten the words to the pret-ti-est tune

 3     3   6   6    6   5  -4  4  -4  5    5 
That would ne-ver leave a dry eye in the room

4   5  5 5   -6   4   4  -4  6  -5   5
My on-ly ex-cuse for not do-ing e-nough

well I was too bus-y be-ing in love


 5  -5 6   -6  6  5 -4  5   5  5 -4
Yes I was too bus-y be-ing in love

Brand new phrases appear every time you are near
All these words you inspire after all these years
But I never reached for a pen
Break the mood that I’m in
Before I knew it the words were gone again

Oh no! Too bad, there goes the chance that I had
I could have written a play so sweet and so funny
Given old Mr. Shakespeare a run for his money
Written the words to the prettiest tune
That would never leave a dry eye in the room
My only excuse for not doing enough
well I was too bus-y be-ing in love

 5   -5 6   -6  6  5  -4 5   5  5    7 -8 7 8 -8 7
Yes I was too bus-y be-ing in love , Oooo ________

I could have written the part to make young lovers crazy
I could have written the movie for Hepburn and Tracey
The beautiful song and it starts with your name
Written my way into fortune and fame
But I have no regrets for not doing enough
well I was too busy being in love

 5   5  6   -6  6  5 -4  5  -4   5   
Yes I was too bus-y be-ing in love ,
