My acoustic version of this cracking old Waits tune,
I'm going on memory with the lyrics, so they might not
be 100%, or maybe I've been singing them wrong too long.
Hope you enjoy,
if you like it.... rate it please

I HOPE THAT I DON'T FALL IN LOVE WITH YOU
C F G
Well I hope that I don't fall in love with you
C F G
'Cause falling in love jus' makes me blue
F C G C
Well the music plays and you display, Your heart for me to see
F C F G
I had a beer and now I hear you callin' out to me
C F G C
And I hope that don't fall in love with you
C F G
Well the room is crowded, There's people everywhere
C F G
And I wonder should I offer you a chair
F C G C
Well if you sit down with this ol' clown, I'll take that frown and break it
F C F G
Before the evening's gone away, I think that we could make it
C F G C
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you
C F G
Well the night does funny things inside a man
C F G
These old tom-cat feelings you don't understand
F C G C
When I turn around to look at you, You light cigarette
F C F G
I wish I had the guts to bum one, But we've never met
C F G C
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you
C F G
I can see that you are lonesome just like me
C F G
And it being late you'd like some company
F C G C
Well I turn around to look at you, And you look back at me
F C F G
The guy you're with has up and split, The chair next to you's free
C F G C
And I hope the you don't fall in love with me
C F G
Now it's closing time, The music's fading out
C F G
Last call for drinks, I'll have another stout
F C G C
When I turn around to look at you, You're nowhere to be found
F C F G
I search the place for your lost face, Guess I'll have another round
C F G C
And I think that I just fell in love with you
