I found her diary underneath the tree and started reading about me
GG11C/G
The words she^?d written took me by surprise; you^?d never read them in
her eyes.
Edim7GD7B7EmG7
She said that she had found the love she^?d waited for
CGCG
Wouldn^?t you know it? She wouldn^?t show it
GG11C/G
Then she, confronted with the writing there, simply pretended not to
care
GG11C/G
I passed it off as just in keeping with her total disconcerting air.
Edim7GD7B7EmG7
And though she tried to hide the love that she denied
CGCG
Wouldn^?t you know it? She wouldn^?t show it.

And as I go through my life
Am7D7G
I will give to her, my wife
CB7sus4
All the sweet things I can find.

I found her diary underneath the tree and started reading about me
GG11C/G
The words began to stick, then tears to fall. Her meaning now was clear
to see
Edim7GD7B7EmG7
The love she^?d waited for was someone else, not me.
CGCG
Wouldn^?t you know it? She wouldn^?t show it.
DB7EmG7C
And as I go through my life
Am7D7G
I will wish for her, his wife
CG
All the sweet things she can find
CD11G
All the sweet things she can find.
