When I Write The Book  Nick Lowe



Intro:
[A]    [A]  [D]  [E] 

Verse
[E]Now I can still re[A]member[D]   like it was [E]only yesterd[A]ay [D]
[E]Love was young and [A]foolish[D] like a [E]little child at [A]play [D]
But [E]oh how lovers [A]change --[D] I never dre[E]amed how [A]easily [D]
cause [E]now I'm just a [A]shadow[E] of the [D]boy I used to [A]be.  Y[D]eah  Yea[E]h

Chorus
And [A]when I write the book [C#7]about my love
It will[F#m] be about a man who is [D]torn in half
About his [A]hopes and ambitions [E]wasted through the years
The [C#7]pain will be written on every [F#m]page in [D]tears
When I [A]write, (when I write the [D]book)[E]
When I write the [A]book about (When I write the [D] [D]book about my [E] [E]love)

Verse

I was a fool to myself when I kept on runnin around
And I fared little better when I tried settlin down
Maybe some magic moment, I've never known one, not for long
For all too soon the magic was in a moment gone

Chorus

And when I write the book about my love
It'll be a heartbreaking story of bad love and luck
When I get down on the pages all I felt
It will make the hardest-hearted of critics hearts melt
When I write the book about my love

Break:
[E]  [F]  [F#]  [G] [G]  [E]

Verse

When I was young love was fun and I was so happy
I looked so good, and I dressed so snappy
Two-tone shoes on my feet, big old smile on my face
As I moved and grooved all over the place
Now Im down in the heels, my complexion is bad
cause my love life is sadder than sad

Chorus

And when I write the book about my love
It'll be a pop publication, tougher than tough
When I get down on the pages all I missed
It will shoot to the top of the best-sellers list
When I write the book about my love
