Is That A Smile?

DDU x DDU

C x G x Am x F


VERSE ONE:

                    C

Is that a smile?

               G

I could tell by the way

       Am         F

My heart grew wings and flew away

                        C

Was that a wink?

          G

Let’s see if my head

             Am                            F

Keeps on spinning  for the rest of today.



PRE CHORUS:

C

I’ll admit

  G

I spend a bit

        Am

Too much time

                             F

Studying the curve of your smile



CHORUS:

                  C

But do I need to?

        G

Do I need to regret

         Am                                   F

And wish I could hit rewind?

          C

Do I need to?

           G

Do I need to spend

               Am                        F

Every moment with your face inside my mind?

          Am     F

Do I need to hear you laugh a thousand times?



VERSE TWO:

                               C

Did you just laugh?

 G

I came as soon as I heard

  Am         F

That sound rings clearer than all words.

               C

I won’t survive.

                 G

I’ll turn redder than your lips

                        Am            F

The mere thought of it’s absurd-



PRE CHORUS:

C

I’ll admit

  G

I spend a bit

        Am

Too much time

                             F

Studying the curve of your smile


CHORUS:

                  C

But do I need to?

        G

Do I need to regret

         Am                                   F

And wish I could hit rewind?

          C

Do I need to?

           G

Do I need to spend

               Am                        F

Every moment with your face inside my mind?

          Am     F

Do I need to hear you laugh a thousand times?



BRIDGE:

        C

It’s hard to pretend

           G

I’m a normal person

               Am          F

When you’re around

                

But I’m trying

                 G

But I’m trying

                  Am

But I’m trying

       F

I’m trying



CHORUS:

                  C

But do I need to?

        G

Do I need to regret

         Am                                   F

And wish I could hit rewind?

          C

Do I need to?

           G

Do I need to spend

               Am                        F

Every moment with your face inside my mind?

          Am     F

Do I need to hear you laugh a thousand times?

         G     C

Do I need to hear you laugh a thousand times?

                  C

Is that a smile?

Interesting take on infatuation. Chord pattern and beat are straight forward.
