#1.
Am          Bm       G                 Am
When an irresistible force such as you..meets an
                     Gm  G
old immovable object like me.
Am                         Em

#2.
Am          Bm        G                   Am
When an irrepressible smile such as yours..warms an
      Bm       G
old implacable heart such as mine.

Am                     Em      Am
Don't say no because I insist..somewhere, somehow,
                   G
someone's gonna be kissed.

       Dm                                      C
So, en garde, who knows what the fates have in store..
Bm                         Am
from their vast mysterious sky?
         Em      A                   D      Em
I'll try hard, ignoring those lips I adore, but how long
Am         Dm  D
can anyone try?

Am                             G              Am
Chances are some heavenly star spangled night, we'll find
       D          Em   G
out as sure as we live.
