Somethin' Stupid

By Nancy Sinatra

[Verse 1]
  E
I know I stand in line until you think
                              F#m          B  F#m B
You have the time to spend an evening with me.
    F#m          B                F#m
And if we go someplace to dance I know that
          B                   E
There's a chance you won't be leaving with me.


[Chorus]
    E7
And afterwards we drop into a quiet little place
           A            C
And have a drink or two...
    F#m           B               F#m
And then I go and spoil it all by saying
          B              E
Something stupid, like I love you.


[Bridge]
      E7
I can see it in your eyes that you despise
                                 A
The same old lines you heard the night before.
    F#                                 F#7
And though it's just a line to you for me it's true
                    B            B7#5
And never seemed so right before.


[Verse 2]
  E
I practice everyday to find some clever lines
                   F#m          B    F#m B
To say to make the meaning come true.
    F#m               B              F#m          B
But then I think I'll wait until the evening gets late
        E
And I'm alone with you.


[Chorus]
    E7
The time is right your perfume fills my head
                              A               C
The stars get red and oh, the night's so blue.
    F#m           B               F#m
And then I go and spoil it all by saying
          B7            E
Something stupid like I love you.


[Musical Interlude]
E
F#m B F#m B

[Chorus]
    E7
The time is right your perfume fills my head
                              A               C
The stars get red and oh, the night's so blue.
    F#m           B               F#m
And then I go and spoil it all by saying
          B7            E          C
Something stupid like I love you.


[Outro]
  E        C
I love you...
  E        C
I love you...
  E        C
I love you...
