C F F/G G
Well, I hope that I don't fall in love with you
C F F/G G
'Cause falling in love just makes me blue.
C G F G
Well, the music plays and you display your heart for me to see.

I had a beer and now I hear you calling out for me.
C F G C G Am Bm
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.

( Well the room is crowded, people everywhere,
And I wonder—should I offer you a chair?
Well, if you sit down with this old clown,
He'll take that frown and break it.
Before the evening's gone away
I think that we could make it,
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you. )
C F F/G G
Well, the night does funny things inside a man.
C F F/G G
These old tomcat feelings you don't understand.
C G F G
Well, I turn around to look at you; you light a cigarette.
C G F G
I wish I had the guts to bum one, but we've never met,
C F G C G Am Bm
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.
C F F/G G
I can see that you are lonesome just like me,
C F F/G G
And I'm feeling like you'd like some some company.
C G F G
Well, I turn around to look at you and you look back at me.
C G F G
The guy you're with has up and split, the chair next to you's free.
C F G C
And I hope that you don't fall in love with me.
C F F/G G
Now it's closing time, the music's fading out.
C F F/G G
Last call for drinks, I'll have another stout.
C G F G
Well, I turn around to look at you; you're nowhere to be found.
C G
I search the place for your lost face—
F G
Guess I'll have another round.
C F G C
And I think that I just fell in love with you.
