[Verse 1.]
BmYou smiled that misty F#mway
And something in me Gsaid
DRemember the Alast time Gdon't fall in love
BmI walked so blindly F#min
I fell and hurt my Ghead
DI can't forget it AI won't regret Git
DI couldn't even Gstop it if I Atried
[Refrain]
DOnly this Atime I'm F#mgoing Gin with Amy eyes Dopen
I won't Gmake the same mistakes Dagain
This Atime I'll F#msee the Gsigns and Ano hearts Dbroken
BmWon't be so Gblind and lose my Dway
[Verse 2.]
BmYou'd be so F#mnice to love
Don't Glet it end the Dsame
If Ayou get uneasy, Gjust let me know
BmDon't lie or F#mcall me by
GSomebody else's Dname
AI couldn't take it
I Gknow it would break it
And I Dwanna give you Geverything I Aam
[Repeat Refrain]
DOnly this Atime I'm F#mgoing Gin with Amy eyes Dopen
I won't Gmake the same mistakes Dagain
This Atime I'll F#msee the Gsigns and Ano hearts Dbroken
BmWon't be so Gblind and lose my Dway
