Feel free to embellish the chords as you like. In the recording, Armstrong sometimes hammers on the D string
when playing C, for example.
[Verse 1]
G D/F# Words get trapped in my mind Em C So don't think I don't take the time to feel the way I do G D 'Cause the first day you came into my life G D My time ticks around you G D/F# But then I need your voice Em C As the key to unlock all the love that's trapped in me G D G G7 So, tell me when it's time to say "I love you"
[Chorus]
C G All I want is you to understand D G That when I take your hand, it's 'cause I want to C G We are all born in a world of doubt D But there's no doubt Csus2 G/B D5/A I figured out I love you
[Verse 2]
G D/F# I feel lonely for Em C All the losers that will never take the time to say G D What was really on their mind, instead G D They just hide away G D/F# Yet they'll never have Em C Someone like you to guide them and help along the way G D G Or tell them when it's time to say "I love you"
[Outro]
G D C G/B Am7 G So, tell me when it's time to say "I love you"
