       G           Em                G         Em
By the way she was smiling, with her eyes so beguiling

        C         D             D7       G
I could tell at a glance that I hadn't a chance
[Chorus]
       G          Em           G            Em
She is almost too lovely but I wish it were me

Cm7                    D7                    G       D7
Then I know you'd only want to be looking my way
[Verse 2]
       G            Em           G              Em
It's a strange fascination to be faced with temptation

           C          D             D7       G
Should you answer her call, are you going to fall?
[Chorus]
       G          Em           G            Em
She is almost too lovely but I wish it were me

Cm7                    D7                     G  C  G
Then I know you'd only want to be falling for me
[Bridge]
     Em          Em         C        D
What would I dooooooo, were I in her place?

     Em              Em       C          D
When love is newwwwww,   it's so hard to face
[Verse 3]
       G            Em                G          Em
Is her love so much stronger that you want me no longer

        C        D              D7          G
Has she taken my place with her sweet angel face
[Outro]
       G          Em              G            Em
She is almost too lovely, still I wish it were me

Cm7                        D7                          G    C   G   G
Then you might know how it feels when you're trying to hide

Cm7                      D7                              G      C     G
All of the pain that you made my heart suffer (Stop)   inside
