Jason Robert Brown - I Could Be In Love With Someone Like You chords

D
My first crush on an Irish girl,
I was ten years old
And her name was Elaine.
Little red-head girl;
Well, she looked like you,
But if you were ten.
                     Bm7
Which you’re clearly not.
              G2
Not that you look old,
                   Em11
But you get my...
I’ll just stop now.
D
Okay, wait, ‘cause I had a point -
No, I swear I did!
Well, I think I did,
                   Bm7
Which is all my life
               Bm7/A
(Or since I was ten)
          Bm7/G 
I have had a yen
Bm7/F#      Em11
For an Irish lass.
                     C2
Because God knows why,
             G2/A
Like the ancient curse
            D
Of the shiksa queens.


Do I talk too much?

                  Bm7
Which is not to say
             Bm7/A
That I’d want Elaine,
                        Bm7/G
Who turned out to be
                   Bm7/F#
(When I last checked in)
        Bm7/E
A Republican
          D
And a parapsychologist.


F                     Bb/F        Cm/F
If you’ve got a four-leaf clover,
F
You can make my dreams come true.
I will be your Hebrew slave:
       Db2                       Eb2          F
Just do the things that Irish girls do.
Talk about potato famines,
I begin to cry on cue!
Eb/F
Sing about the Emerald Isle and
Ab/Bb
Get your Irish eyes to smilin’ -
Db/Eb                                               D
I could be in love with someone like you.

D
I just left a relationship
With a lovely girl 
Named Alyssa Levine.
She was really great,
It was all my fault -
I just got upset
‘Cause she slept with my brother.

       Bm7
So I made a vow
                 Bm7/A
Not to get caught up
          Bm7/G
In the dating scene
                     Bm7/F#
Or the whole routine
               Bm7/E
With the cousin’s friend
                   Bm7/F#
Or the who-knows-what,
                         Bm7/G
Like I need that shit.
             D
I’ve got marks to make,
             D/E
I’ve got steps to climb,
            D/F#
It’s the perfect time!
                       D/G
I’ve got books to write,
                       D/A
I’ve got things to do -
              D/B
I go out my door
                 D/C
And bump into you,
                   D
And the jig is up,
             D/E
And my vow is through!
           D/F#                G6
I don’t know what I’m coin’,
       D2/F#          Em11
But come in and ruin me!


F                            Bb/F    Cm/F
I will write my own “Ulysses”
F
If you’re there to show me how.
Take me back to Glocca Morra,
Db2                           Eb2            F
Bathe me in the River Shannon now.
If you’ll be Mrs. O’Leary,
Baby, I will be your cow.
Eb/F
I’ll deliver shamrocks daily,
Ab/Bb
Buy your pa a new shillelagh,
Db/Eb
I could be in love with someone like...


Eb6                                AbMaj7/Eb
You could be my inspiration
                                 Eb6
And get me past this block,
                                        D#aug
And walk me through the Great Unknown.
Eb2                                    AbMaj7/Eb
You could be my true salvation,
                                     Eb2
Unchain me from this rock,
                                           Cb2
And keep me from being alone,
‘Cause I’m no good at being alone!


F                   Bb/F       Cm/F
Take me to another level!
F

I will do a Riverdance

As long as you keep answering my calls!
Get me out of my apartment!
Keep me from my empty walls!
Eb/F
Someone hire John McCormack!
                                         Cb7
Start the Wearing of the Green!

Let me win the Irish Sweepstakes!
                                                    Db/Eb
Let me take you home, Kathleen!
I can be in love with someone!
I can be in love with someone!
