G         C             D       G 
I bare my windowed self untamed and untrained 
G                  C                     D    G 
Dreams that hardly touch our complexions truest faults 
   G               C       D         G 
If room enough for both my drowsy spirit shall fall 
G          C      D                G 
Bold waves tumble oh to the season of my heart 
    G     C          D         G 
And you have offended my faith and my trust 
G            C             D             G 
Until all is lost into the beauty of the day 

(INTRO) 

  
            G                C       D 
But there's something in the way you laugh 
                G    G             C    D    G 
And it makes me feel like a child 
G          C  
Aspects of life they confuse me 
D            G               G   C   D   G 
You and your thesis amuse me 
             D         C 
Oh, after an afternoon with you 
         G          C 
And your rich brown eyes 
                   D    G  
Your lips and your dark hair 
G          C             D                 G 
Elbows and exposed knees tossing toward the ceiling 
D                           C 
A ling A ling A ling A ling... 
D 
Oh.. 
         G 
After an afternoon 

(INTRO 8x) 

D       C 
Face to palm 
D 
Tear to tear 
C 
Mouth to tongue 
G    C    D    G 
Heart to ground 
G    C    D    G 
Heart to ground 
G    C    D    G 
Heart to ground 
G   C 
Heart, heart,  
D       G 
I am in love
