I Hope That I Dont Fall In Love With You by Tom Waits - Guitar Chords

<< Back to Tom Waits Song List
Version 1 Version 2 Version 3
            Okay, because some people seem to be having difficulty, or, they just
 want everything done for them.

 Remember, this TAB is just something you can use to build on,
 make it your own when you play it.

 Also note, Mr. Waits chooses to play flattened notes, it's not a badly tuned
 guitar, it's deliberate.
 He also chooses to pick unconventional strings, jumping from the low E string
 to the D string while playing a G Chord for instance.

 This is for the version on the album "Closing Time"

 This is one version of the turn around that's played at the end of each Verse.
 You are free to play one you prefer, or, none at all, if that's what you like.

 INTRO:    C     F     G        C     F     G

          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
