[VERSE 1]

[Amaj7] If I could say the t[F#m]hings I feel, [Bm7]it wouldn't be the s[Eadd9]ame [E6]
[Amaj7]Some things are not sp[F#m]oken of, s[Bm7]ome things have no na[E6]me
[Amaj7]And though the words c[F#m]ome hard to me[Bm7] I'll say them just for [F]you
[Amaj7]For this is something r[F#m]are for me this [Bm7]feeling is so n[E]ew

[CHORUS]
You see I l[Amaj7]ove the way you l[Bm7]ove me [E]
[Amaj7]Love the way y[Bm7]ou smile at m[E]e
[Amaj7]I love the way[Bm7] we live thi[E]s life we're[Amaj7] in [F#m] [Amaj7/E]

[VERSE 2]
L[A7]ong ago I hea[F#m]rd the song that l[Bm7]overs sing to [E]me
A[A7]nd through the days wit[F#m]h each new phrase I [Bm7]hummed that melod[E]y
A[A7]nd all along I [F#m]loved the song but[Bm7] I never learned it throu[F]gh
B[A7]ut since the day you c[F#m]ame along, I've[Bm7] saved it just for y[E]ou

[CHORUS]
You see I l[Amaj7]ove the way you l[Bm7]ove me [E]
[Amaj7]Love the way y[Bm7]ou smile at m[E]e
[Amaj7]I love the way[Bm7] we live thi[E]s life we're [D]in [D/C#] [Bm7]

[BRIDGE]
[D]I don't believe in [G]magic but [C]I do believe in y[Am]ou
[Dm]And when you say you be[G]lieve in me
There's so much [Am]magic I can do [E6]

[VERSE 3]
[Amaj7]Now you see me, no[F#m]w you don't [Bm7]watch me dive [E]below
[Amaj7]Deep down in your [F#m]love lake where the [Bm7]sweet fish come and [E]go
[Amaj7]And I might sink, [F#m]and I might drown bu[Bm7]t death don't mean a th[F]ing
'Ca[Amaj7]use life continues [F#m]right or wrong
[Amaj7]When I play this [F#m]Birthday song
I lea[D7]rned from you
And you can't even s[Amaj7]ing...
