This is the version Taylor Swift played on her Red Tour as a surprise song (source:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2ry-zR4F_8). It's a bit lower than the original version,
making it easier to sing. For the version in that video, capo is on 3. I believe she played
the same version in LA on capo 5.
As with the original version of the song, strings are muted through the entire first
verse.
[Intro]
(muted)
C Em F C
[Verse]
C Em
There I was again tonight, forcing laughter, faking smiles,
F C
Same old tired lonely place.
C Em
Walls of insincerity, shifting eyes and vacancy
F C
Vanished when I saw your face;
F Am G
All I can say is it was enchanting to meet you.
C Em
Your eyes whispered, "Have we met?" across the room, your silhouette
F C
Starts to make its way to me.
C Em
The playful conversation starts, counter all your quick remarks
F C
Like passing notes in secrecy
F Am G
And it was enchanting to meet you.
F Am G
All I can say is I was enchanted to meet you.
[Chorus]
F C G F
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
C G F
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
C G F
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
F Am G
I was enchanted to meet you
[Verse]
C Em
The lingering question kept me up, 2 a.m., who do you love?
F C
I wonder 'till I'm wide-awake
C Em
Now I'm pacing back and forth, wishing you were at my door
F C
I'd open up and you would say, "Hey,
F Am G
It was enchanting to meet you.
F Am G
All I know is I was enchanted to meet you.
[Chorus]
F C G F
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
C G F
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
C G
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew...
F C G F
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
C G F
I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
C G F
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
Am G
I was enchanted to meet you
[Interlude]
F C G F x2
[Bridge]
G
And this is me praying that
F C G F
This was the very first page, not where the storyline ends
F C G F
My thoughts will echo your name until I see you again
F C G F
These are the words I held back as I was leaving too soon
F Am G
I was enchanted to meet you
C Em
Please don't be in love with someone else,
F C
Please don't have somebody waiting on you.
C Em
Please don't be in love with someone else,
F C
Please don't have somebody waiting on you.
[Chorus]
F C G F
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
C G F
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
C G
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew...
F C G F
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
C G F
I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
C G F
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
Am G
I was enchanted to meet you
[Bridge]
C Em
Please don't be in love with someone else,
F C
Please don't have somebody waiting on you.
C Em
Please don't be in love with someone else,
F C
Please don't have somebody waiting on you.
