[Intro]
Em7      A7       Em7      A7
D                 D
 
[Verse 1]
  D               D6             Dmaj7              D6
I know I stand in line until you think you have the time
            Em7          A7    Em7   A7
to spend an evening with me.
    Em7           A7                Em7                 A7
And if we go some place to dance, I know that there's a chance
             D            D6    Dmaj7    D6
you won't be leaving with me.
 
[Chorus 1]
    D7            Am7         D7
And afterwards we drop into a quiet little place
           G*              Bb*
and have a drink or two,
    Em7           A7              Em7              A7
and then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid
       D        D6   Dmaj7   D6
like I love you.
 
[Bridge]
      D7             Am               D7
I can see it in your eyes that you despise the same old lines
              G                 G
you heard the night before.
    E7                 Bm              E7
And though it's just a line to you for me it's true
    Bm              A7                A7+5
and never seemed so right before.
 
[Verse 2]
  D              D6               Dmaj7           D6
I practice every day to find some clever lines to say
            Em7          A7    Em7   A7
to make the meaning come true.
    Em7               A7             Em7          A7
But then I think I'll wait until the evening gets late
         D         D6    Dmaj7    D6
and I'm alone with you.
 
[Chorus 2]
    D7                  Am7              D7
The time is right, your perfume fills my head, the stars get red
             G*              Bb*
and, oh, the nights so blue.
    Em7           A7              Em7              A7
And then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid
       D        D6   Dmaj7   D6
like I love you.
 
[Strings Solo]
D         D6         Dmaj7        D6
Em7       A7         Em7          A7
Em7       A7         Em7          A7
D         D6         Dmaj7        D6
 
[End-Chorus]
    D7                  Am7              D7
The time is right, your perfume fills my head, the stars get red
             G*              Bb*
and, oh, the nights so blue.
    Em7           A7              Em7              A7
And then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid
       D      D6       Bb
like I love you,
  D      D6       Bb
I love you,
  D      D6       Bb
I love you,
  D      D6       Bb
I love you,
  D      D6       Bb
I love you,
  D      D6       G
I love you.

Definitely the best one for me. The music is supposed to move in this piece and this chord selection does it. Thanks for taking the time to add this. (I think a lot of people get stuck going to the highest rating and never moving down the line, but I always go check out the later stop that was added, and sometimes it’s good and sometimes it’s not so good, but there are quite a few times like this where it pays off. They should have much higher than 28 or whatever it is ratings)

At the bridge, I am not sure there's a misprint there, but I don't hear a major7th there at all. The minor 7th sounds closer.
