Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
And  I love you  so.
 The people ask me how,
 How I've lived till now.
 I tell them I don't know.
 I guess they understand
 How lonely life has been.
 But life began again
 The day you took my hand.
And,  yes, I know how lonely life  can be.
 The  shadows follow me, and the night  won't set me free.
 But  I don't let the evening  get me down
Now  that you're around  me.
 Adlib: ------
And  you love me,  too.
 Your thoughts are just for  me;
 You set my spirit free.
 I'm happy that you do.
 The book of life is brief
 And once a page is read,
 All but love is dead.
 That is my belief.
And,  yes, I know how loveless  life can be.
 The shadows  follow me, and the night  won't set me free.
 But I  don't let the evening  bring me down
 Now that  you're around  me.
And  I love you  so.
 The people ask me how,
 How I've lived till now.
 I tell them I don't know.
