A
D
They say that I
never have written of love
A
As a writer of songs should do
They say that I never could
touch the strings
D
With a touch that is firm and true
They say I know nothing
of women and men
G
In the fields where love's roses grow
I must write, they say,
D
with a haunting pen
A
D
Do you think that I do not know?
Verse 2
D
My love burst came like an English spring
A
In the days when our hair was brown
And the hem of her shirt
was a sacred thing
D
Her hair was an angel's crown
The shock when another man
touched her arm
G
Where the dancer sat in a row'
The hope and despair and
D
the false alarm
A
D
Do you think that I do not know?
Verse 3
D
By the amber lights on
the western farms
A
You remember the question you put
While you held her warm in
your quavering arms
D
You trembled from head to foot
The electric shock from her fingertips
G
The murmuring answer low
D
The soft shy yielding of warm red lips
A
Do you think that I do not
D
know?

Verse 4
D
She was buried at Brighton,
where Gordon sleeps
A
When I was a world away
And the sad old garden its secret keeps
D
For nobody knows today.
She left a message for me to read
G
Where the wild, wide oceans flow
Do you know how the heart
D
of a man can bleed?
A
D
Do you think that I do not know?
Verse 5
D
I stood by the grave where
the dead girl lies
A
When the sunlit scene was fair
'Neath the white clouds
high in the autumn skies
D
I answered the message there
But the haunting words of the dead to me
G
Shall go wherever I go
She lives in the marriage that
D
might have been
A
D
Do you think that I do not know?
A
D
Do you think that I do not know?
