 Am7  G

[First Part]

        F7M                  Em7
There's something I want to tell you
        F7M                    Em7
There's something I think that you 
should know
              F7M                
It's not that I shouldn't really 
Em7
love you
                 C/D Dm7  C/D   
Let's take it slow
Am7  G

     F7M                 Em7
When we get to know each other
    F7M                Em7
And we're both feeling much stronger
           F7M            Em7
Then let's try to talk it over
                   C/D Dm7  C/D   
Let's wait awhile longer
Am7  G


[Chorus 1]

 G/C      F7M

Dm7 G
Be - fore it's too late
 G/C      F7M
Let's wait awhile

Before we go      too far

[Interlude] F7M  Em7  C/D  Dm7  

C/D  Am7  G

[Second Part]

  F7M                    Em7
Remember that special night
     F7M                    Em7
When all of the stars were shining 
bright?
   F7M              Em7
We made our first endeavor
              C/D Dm7  C/D   Am7  G
To stay together
   F7M                 Em7
We made our very first promise
   F7M                 Em7
To love, to share and be real honest
    F7M                 G/C
But on that very first night
                 C/D Dm7  C/D   
It wasn't quite right
Am7  G

I didn't really know
       Em7
Not to let all my feelings show

To save some for later
Am7        Dm7/G
So our love can be greater

[Third Part]

    F7M                        Em7
You said you would, always love me
  F7M                Em7
Remember I said the same thing too
          F7M                      
You don't have to be frightened 
   Em7
with my love
            Dm7
Because...,      I'll never give up 
on you
Em7
    Let's wait awhile
F7M
       Before it's too late
F#º
