VERSE
Ab/C        Db       Eb       Fm
 The book of love is long and boring
Ab/C   Db            Eb7       Ab
 No one can lift the damn thing
Ab/C         Db          Eb        Fm     Ab/C Db               Eb7 Ab
 It's full of charts and facts and figures and instructions for dan-cing

CHORUS
    Ab Db/Ab Eb/Ab Ab
But I
Ab      Db/Ab       Eb/Ab   Ab
 I love it when you read to me
    Ab Db/Ab Eb/Ab Ab
And you
Ab/C    Db     Eb  Ab
You can read me anything

VERSE
Ab/C        Db        Bbm7  Ab
 The book of love has music in it
Ab/C    Db             Eb         Ab
 In fact that's where music comes from
Ab/C    Db         Eb      Fm  
 Some of it's just transcendental
Ab/C    Db         Eb     Fm
 Some of it's just really dumb

CHORUS
    Ab Db/Ab Eb/Ab Ab
But I
Ab    Db/Ab        Eb/Ab   Ab
I love it when you sing to me
    Ab Db/Ab Eb/Ab Ab
And you

You can sing me anything

VERSE
Ab/C        Db       Eb       Fm
 The book of love is long and boring
Ab/C        Db    Eb      Ab
 And written very long ago
Ab/C         Db           Eb           Fm
 It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes
Ab/C             Db       Eb7      Ab
 And things we're all too young to know

CHORUS
    Ab/C Db2 Eb7 Fm7
But I
Ab       Db         Eb      Ab
 I love it when you give me things
    Ab/C Db2 Eb7 Fm7
And you
Ab/C          Db     Eb7      Ab    
 You ought to give me wedding rings
    Ab Bbm7 Ab/C DbM7
And I
Ab/Eb    Db/F       Eb/G    Ab
 I love it when you give me things
    Ab/C Db2 Eb7 Ab
And you
Ab/C         Db      Eb7      Ab
 You ought to give me wedding rings
Ab/C Db Eb7 Fm7
Ab/C         Db      Bbm7          Ab5
 You ought to give me wedding rings
