Intro: F Am F  C   G 

N.C.              C 
You don't have to tell me, "No, darling" 
                  Am 
You don't have to tell me, "No, child" 
C                 F         G 
You don't have to tell me 
                     C 
I can see it in your eyes 


                     F 
I can see it in your smile 
                   Am 
I can see into the years 
                      F 
I can feel it on your breath 
                      G 
And I know we'll be together 
                      C 
When you whisper in my ear 


                     F 
I can see it in your walk 
                      Am 
I can feel it and I'm sure 
                             F 
There's no promise you could speak 
                      G 
No vow that you could take 
                          C 
That would make me more secure 
 
G                 C 
You don't have to tell me, "No, darling" 
                  Am 
You don't have to tell me, "No, child" 
C                 F         G 
You don't have to tell me 
                     C 
I can see it in your eyes
