(intro) Em7 D#m7 Dm7 G7 Em7 Abm7 C#m7
Cm7 D#m7 Dm7
They asked me how I knew
G7 C Caug F
My true love was true
F#dim7 Em7
I of course replied
Am7 Dm7
"Something here inside
G7 C Em7 D#m7 Dm7 G7
Cannot be denied"
They said someday you'll find
All who love are blind
When your heart's on fire
You must realise
G7 C Bbm7 Eb7
Smoke gets in your eyes
Abm7 Fm7
So I chaffed and then I gaily laughed
Bbm7 Bbm7 Eb7
To think they would doubt my love
Ab7 Fm7 G7
Yet today, my love has flown away
C A7 Dm6 G7
I am without my love
Now laughing friends deride
Tears I cannot hide
So I smile and say
"When a lovely flame dies,
G7 C E7 D7 C#m7 Cm7
Smoke gets in your eyes."
