How Was I To Know
John Michael Montgomery   What I Do The Best

[D E9 Em9 Gm A]

Well I hoped and I prayed and I loved you from afar	[D]
I cried and I dreamed and I wished on every star		[F#m]
But nothing I'd do got me closer to you			[G]
So I locked all my feelings inside				[A]

Then one night across a crowded room			[D]
You looked my way your eyes held something new	[F#m]
You walked right up to me and smiled tenderly		[G]
And your words came as such a surprise			[A7sus A7]

CHORUS:
How was I to know, you never let it show		[D E9]
What a beauty like you might see			[Em9]
In a poor boy like me					[Gm A]

How could I have seen, you walk out of my dreams	[D E9]
Shine your light on my sleepin' heart			[Em9]
And into my soul, How was I to know			[Gm A7 Gm A7 D]

You took my hand and led me out the door			[D]
We talked and we laughed 'bout all the times before	[F#m]
When two lonely people so much in love			[G]
Passed like ships in the night					[A7sus A7]

CHORUS

BREAK:  		[D E9 Em9 Gm A]

How could I have seen, you walk out of my dreams	[D E9]
Shine your light on my sleepin' heart			[Em9]
And into my soul, How was I... 				[Gm A7 Gm A7]
How was I to know					[Gm A7]

		[D E9 Em9 Gm A D].
