          You didn't have to be so nice

          If you had just looked once or twice
(once or twice)

          And gone upon your quiet way
(quiet way)
Chorus:
 AAmaj7A6Amaj7E

You came upon a quiet day
You simply seemed to take your place
I knew that it would be that way
The minute that I saw your face

Verse 3:
And when we've had a few more days
(when we've had a few more days)
I wonder if I'll get to say

You didn't have to be so nice
(be so nice)
I would have liked you anyway
(would have liked...)

Today I said the time was right for me to follow you

And it's true
