Too busy being in love 
By:  Doug Stone 
 
Key of D 
Intro:  D  G  A  G  A 
 
D                        G                        F#m 
If I would take a little time to write down a few lines 
                    G           A       D 
Every time that you cross this heart of mine 
D                     G                                   F#m 
And put them all in a book, how much time would that have took 
                           G      A 
The words and years have a way of slipping by 
Bm      A  D    Bm              G            A 
Oh no, too bad, there goes the chance that I had 
 
             D          Bm      G           A 
I could have written a play so sweet and so funny 
        D         Bm        G           A 
Given old Mr. Shakespeare a run for his money 
Bm          A            G 
Written the words to the prettiest tune 
     D                       G          A 
That would never leave a dry eye in the room 
   Bm   G               A    Bm 
My only excuse for not doing that 
     G          D   A        Bm 
Well I was too busy being in love, 
     G          D   A         D         G  A  G  A 
Yes, I was too busy being in love. 
 
D                   G                      F#m 
Brand new phrases appear every time you are near 
                    G             A         D 
All these words you inspire after all these years 
                        G                            F#m 
But I never reach for a pen, break the mood that I'm in 
                      G         A 
Before I knew it the words were gone again 
Bm      A  D    Bm              G            A 
Oh no, too bad, there goes the chance that I had 
 
Chorus 
 
G  A                 D          Bm          G           A 
        I could have written a poem to make young lovers crazy 
           D         Bm         G          A 
Could have written a movie for Hepburn and Tracy 
  Bm        A           G 
A beautiful song and it starts with your name 
D                  G            A 
Written my way into fortune and fame 
     Bm         G             A     Bm 
But I have no regrets for not doing that 
      G         D   A         Bm 
Well I was too busy being in love, 
    G           D  A         D    G  A  G  A  D 
Yes I was too busy being in love.
