Verse:

AM7                          F#m                    
If I could say the things I feel
Bm7                 E
It wouldn’t be the same
AM7                      F#m
Some things are not spoken of
Bm7                   E
Some things have no name
AM7                        F#m
And though the words come hard to me
Bm7                     F
I’ll say them just for you
AM7                    F#m
For this is something rare for me
       Bm7          E (pause)
This feeling is so new

Chorus:
        AM7                     E
You see I love the way you love me
AM7               Bm7      E
Love the way you smile at me 
   AM7              Bm7      E        AM7-Bm7-E
I love the way we live this life were in

Verse: (do verse chords)
Long ago I hear the song that lover sing to me 
Through the day with each new phrase I hummed that melody
And all along I love the song 
But I never learn it through ah
But since the day you came along I’ve saved it just for you

(Repeat chorus)

Bridge:
D        C            G
I don’t believe in magic 
    Cm7             Am
But I do believe in you
    Dm       Dm7         G
And when you say you believe in me 
               Am hold
There so much magic
Bm hold
 I can do

Verse: (do verse chords)

Now you see me 
Now you don’t
Watch me dive below 
Deep down in your love lake
Were sweet fish come and go
I might sink and I might drown
But death don’t mean a thing
Coz life continue right or wrong
AM7                 F#m
When I play this birthday song 
       AM7        Bm7 pause
I’ve learned form you
     E              A
And you can’t even sing

Video Birthday Song

My Romance - James Taylor cover by Cromwell Manongdo
This is an old song from 1935 or somewhere therein, but i heard this from my all-time fave artist James Taylor. I made this video and sang and played the guitar as a birthday gift for my wife. Hopefully she likes it. It may be corny to some...but love never grows old. Also in the still videos are my sons, Marv and Earvin. Have a great day and God bless.
