Em [cb]Emadd9[/cb] Em Emadd9
Bus stop, wet day, she's there, I say,
Em [cb]Emadd9[/cb] Em Emadd9
"Please, share my um - brel - la!"
Em [cb]Emadd9[/cb] Em Emadd9
Bus stops, bus goes, she stays, love grows...
Em [cb]Emadd9[/cb] Em Emadd9
...Under my um - brel - la!"
[D] A[G]ll that su[D]mmer [Em]we enjoyed it,[Cmaj7] wind and rain and sh[D]ine,
Em [cb]Emadd9[/cb] Em Emadd9 Em D Em
That um - brella, we em - ployed it, by August she was mine!
Ev[G]ery morning[F#7] I would see her wa[Bm]iting[Bm/A] at the [Gmaj7]stop,
[cb]Gmaj7/F#[/cb] Em6
Some - times she'd shopped,
F#7 Bm Bm/A Gmaj7 [cb]Gmaj7/F#[/cb]
And she would show me what she'd bought------, | / / / / |
A[G]ll the people st[F#7]ared, as if we w[Bm]ere both q[Bm/A]uite in - [Gmaj7]sane,
[cb]Gmaj7/F#[/cb] Em6 F#7 Bm B
Some - day, my name, and hers, are going to be the same! | / / / / |
Em [cb]Emadd9[/cb] Em [cb]Emadd9[/cb]
That's the way the whole thing started,
Em [cb]Emadd9[/cb] Em [cb]Emadd9[/cb]
Silly, but it's true,
Em [cb]Emadd9[/cb] Em [cb]Emadd9[/cb] Em [cb]Emadd9[/cb] Em
Thinking of a sweet ro - mance be - ginning in a queue!
[D] Ca[G]me the s[D]un, the [Em]ice was melting,[Cmaj7] no more sheltering n[D]ow,
Em [cb]Emadd9[/cb] Em [cb]Emadd9[/cb] Em D Em
Nice to think that that um - brella led me to a vow!
Ev[G]ery morning[F#7] I would see her wa[Bm]iting[Bm/A] at the [Gmaj7]stop,
