3 5 -4 4 -4 5 -5
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
Iâd 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 ân 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
3 5 5 5 6 6 6 6 -6 3 4
I could have writ-ten a play so sweet and so
4 -4
fun-ny
5 -5 6 6 -6 6 5 4 -6 4
Giv-en old Mis-ter Shake-speare a run for
4 4 -4
his mone-y
7 -6 -6 -7 6 6 -6 -7 7 -5
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
4 4 6 -6 6 5 -4 -4 -4 5
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 Iâm 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 ,
8 8 9 8 9 -8 7
Oooo _____ Hooo____
