A
Pardon me, is your love taken?
A
Hope I haven't been mistaken
         G
Thinking you might love me, you might love me
    A
Now here's my invitation
       A
I have made the reservation
       G                                 E
For an evening for two, an evening with you
           A             F#m      E          D
But if you say this can't be then all I can say is
E                A
Won't you pardon me?


[Verse 2]
        A
I don't think that I can take it
        A
If you say that you can't make it
      G
This evening at eight, please don't be late
   A
I know that you're admired
           A
But don't say that you are tired
           G                               E
And you'd like to decline till some other time
              A         F#m       E          D
I think that you should know the way that I feel
     E
Yes, I love you
                  A      F#m       E       D         A
How nice it would be to spend an evening alone with you
