[Intro]
Am F x4
[Verse 1]
Am F Well, I met you at the blood bank Am F We were looking at the bags Am F Wondering if any of the colors Am F Matched any of the names we knew on the tags Am F You said "See, look, that's yours Am G F Stacked on top with your brother's Am G F See how they resemble one another's Am G F Even in their plastic little covers?"
[Instrumental]
Am F x4
[Verse 2]
Am F Then the snow started falling Am F We were stuck out in your car Am G F You were rubbing both of my hands Am G F Chewing on a candy bar Am G F You said "Ain't this just like the present Am G F To be showing up like this?" Am G F As a moon waned to crescent Am G F We started to kiss
[Instrumental]
Am F x4
[Chorus]
Em Dm And I know it well Am G That secret that we know G That we don't know how to tell F I'm in love with your honor Am I'm in love with your cheeks G What's that noise up the stairs, babe? F Is that Christmas morning creaks?
Am F
[Outro]
F Am And I know it well F G Am I know it well Am F Ooooooh Am F Ooooooh
Am F x2
Am F Yeah I met you at the blood bank Am F We were looking at the bags Am F Wondering if any of the colours Am Matched any of the names F We knew on the tags Am G F But you and I we've been through that Am G F And this is not our fate Am G F None of them along the line Am F Know what any of its worth
Am F x2
