Three Little Words Chords

(ver. 1)
Ethel Waters
[Verse 1]
C              A7          Ds4  Fm6
Three words in my diction - a - ry
C  Dm    Em   G7    C    G7
I  ne -  ver  could see
C              A7       Ds4   Fm6
But to my vo - cab - u - la - ry
C    Dm    F   G7    C
I’ve add - ed  those three
Em  B7          Em      A7 G  D7          G7
I’m waiting for someone    to say them to me
 
[Chorus]
C                  Am C
Three little words
    Am   C    Adim7          G7               Dm7 G7
Oh, what I’d  give  for that wonderful phrase
    F#m7  G7    C                 Am C
To  hear   those three little words
           Am   C   Adim7   G7              Dm7 G7
That’s all I’d live for the rest of my days
    F#m7  G7  C                C7                 Gm7   C7
And what  I   feel in my heart,  they tell sinc - ere - ly

No other words  can  tell   it   half  so   clear - ly

Three little words,     eight  lit - tle  letters

Which simply means “I  - love you!”
 
[Verse 2]
C         A7       Ds4   Fm6
I used to pay no atten - tion
C     Dm   Em   G7  C    G7
When  ev - er  I’d  hear
C             A7    Ds4   Fm6
Some lonesome Romeo men - tion
C   Dm   F    G7  C
“I  love you, my  dear”
Em  B7        Em     A7 G    D7            G7
Now I want to hear it   each time you draw near

To  hear   those three little words
           Am   C   Adim7   G7              Dm7 G7
That’s all I’d live for the rest of my days
    F#m7  G7  C                C7                 Gm7   C7
And what  I   feel in my heart,  they tell sinc - ere - ly
