I've just heard her perform this song live and thought of making a tab for it. It’s a
nice and easy song. For those who have been playing bossa nova before, this is play in
basic bossa beat. For better effects i suggest listening to the song in the album.
Para to kay SITTI!!! Hehe... Jam tayo minsan...
NOTE: The chords in the tab of the intro are improvised to make a “crispier” sound
it could be played with the simple GM7 and A chords which I have shown below. I’m pretty sure
is correct.
Here you go... Enjoy!!!

Verse 1: (you may play intro riff)
GM7
I was alone thinking I was just fine
A
I wasn't looking for anyone to be mine
GM7
I thought love was just a fabrication
A
A train that wouldn't stop at my station
GM7
Home alone, that was my consignment
A
Solitary confinement
GM7
So when we met I was gettin around you
A GM7
I didn't know I was looking for love until I found you...

Chorus:
A GM7
I didn't know I was looking for love until I found you, honey
A GM7
I didn't know I was looking for love until I found you, baby, oh no
A
I didn't know I was looking for love
A
I didn't know I was looking for love
Verse 2:
GM7
Coz there you stood and I would
A
Oh I wonder could I say how I felt and not be misunderstood
GM7
A thousand stars came into my system
A
I never knew how much I had missed them
GM7
Slap on the map of my heart you landed
A
I was coy but you made me candid
GM7
And now the planets circle around you
A GM7
I didn't know I was looking for love until I found you...
Chorus:
A GM7
I didn't know I was looking for love until I found you, baby
A GM7
I didn't know I was looking for love until I found you, baby
A
I didn't know I was looking for love
A
I didn't know I was looking for love
Bridge:
GM7
So we build from here with love as the foundation
A
In a world of tears won consolation
GM7
And now you're here there's a full brass band
A
Playin' in me like a wonderland
GM7
And if you left I would be two-foot small
A
And every tear would be a waterfall
GM7
Soundless, boundless I surround you
A GM7
I didn't know I was looking for love until I found you
Outro: (Play intro riff repeatedly until end)
I just didn't know
Didn't know I was looking for love until I found you..
Love...love...
I just didn't know...
love...love...
Until I found you
Didn't know I was looking for love...
Love...love..
Until I found you...
The outro is played with an adlib... You may improvise if you want it is in the key of D...
