Let Me Be the One Lyrics

previous transcription. several key chords were misplaced. This version
fixes all of these.
The C(9) chord which was previously placed here is actually just a C
chord fingered a bit different. Also in place of these G Chords should
be a Gmaj7. Also some C? turned out to be Fs and such.
F 133211 (barre the first fret)
Gmaj7 320002 (or an easier one -> 3x0002). I prefer this fingering for
pure simplicity and chord structure. Chords tend to ring
better if you have an open fifth at the root instead of
of a triad. To finger this correctly, simply use your
thumb to mute the A string.
One last note before we get started. In the chorus, the D chord is
jazzed up by doing the following...
D Then the following G chord
Intro: G C D C
So you're scared to show your feelings
Baby I do understand
Well I don't make a promise I can't keep
And I vow to be a real good friend
In those big green eyes I see a glow of fire
I just hope that I'm the one you're dreaming of
*Chorus:
Let me be the one to love you (ohh)
Let me be the one to care
Let me be the one to light your flame
Oh baby, oh baby
D n.c.
Let me be the one
We spend all our time together
We can't stand to sleep alone
When you say you have to leave for now
I miss you before you're gone
All along we thought this was absurd (absurd)
Every moment that we spend goes by too fast
Darling darling take this chance on me
Cause I have eyes only for you
Chorus (x2). Below is coming out of second chorus
Oh baby, come on
Let me be the one
( 4 bars of drums )
So you're scared to show your feelings
Baby I do understand
Well I don't make a promise I can't keep
And I vow to be a real good friend
All along we thought this was absurd (absurd)
Every moment that we spend goes by too fast
Darling darling take this chance on me
I have eyes only for you
Chorus (x2)
