How Was I To Know John Michael Montgomery
Well I h[D]oped and I p[Bm]rayed I l[D]oved you from a[Bm]far
I c[D]ried and I dr[Bm]eamed wis[D]hed on every s[Bm]tar
But not[G]hing I do got me closer to you
So I loc[A]ked all my feelings in[A7]side
T[D]hen one n[Bm]ight acr[D]oss a crowded r[Bm]oom
You lo[D]oked my [Bm]way your e[D]yes held something [Bm]new
You wa[G]lked right up to me Smiled tenderly
The w[A]ords came as such a su[A7]rprize
CHORUS:
[(A7)]How was [D]I to know? You never [Bm]let it s[E9]how
What a beauty like y[G]ou might see in a poor boy like [Gm]me-ee-[A]ee
[A7]How could [D]I have seen? You walk out [Bm]of my d[E9]reams
Shining your light on my sl[G]eeping heart
Into my s[Gm]oul-oul-o[A]ul
How was [Gm]I-I-I-[A7]I to k[D]now?
You to[D]ok my h[Bm]and and l[D]ed me to the d[Bm]oor
We ta[D]lked and we la[Bm]ughed ab[D]out all the times b[Bm]efore
[G]Two lonely peple so much in love p[A]ass like ships in the n[A7]ight
chorus, lead, to ending
ENDING:
[A7]How could [D]I have seen? You walk out [Bm]of my dreams
Shining your light on my sle[G]eping heart
Into my [Gm]soul-oul-o[A]ul
How was [Gm]I-I-I-[A]I
How was [Gm]I-I-I-[A7]I to k[D]now?
