Hi, hello. This is my first tab so if I screw up, I'm sorry. It's all done by ear, but
played it alongside the track several times and it sounds accurate, for the most part.
I've seen this tabbed down, but I dont really see the point in that, when you can play
in standard so long as you use barre chords.
Chords Used:
Ab: 466544

Verse 1:
Ab
Oh so the words have all been said
Eb
The feeling's old but it's new to me
I guess I'm scared to death but
Db
Oh I just love you
Ab
Oh I just love you
Ab
Telling my friends, "I gotta go"
Eb
That I need rest
But I'm running for the phone
I think Casey knows but
Db
Oh I just love you
Ab
Oh I just love you
(For the next part, there's just a simple picking on an Ab barre chord for the first two
of the bridge)

A watch now on my wrist, a collared shirt
Eb
And hair clean cut sculpted
Db
I'll iron out the flaws
Come meet your new in-laws
Oh here's the awkward pause
Ab
When I look at you,
Eb
I've caught myself off-guard a time or two
Db
Those funny times I realize that I've been staring
Way too long and you're done talking
Not to mention I've stopped breathing
(pause)
I'm such a mess
Ab
I'm rushing to open your car door
Eb
You lean and open mine before
I can turn the key and

Oh I just love you

Oh I just love you

In the coffee shop you sipped
Eb
Your drink and we all sat and talked
Db
My mind it wandered off alone
To find a thought as beauty
Poured out when you talked
Ab
Stand still in my sight
Eb
A switch got hit somewhere back in my mind
Db
Just then I realized there what I have
To do, because I couldn't stand to look
At you across another crowded room
And know that you would not be mine (hold Db)
Oh time drags its feet
but somehow you sneak it past me
