[Verse 1]
D
You don't know it but I've made my mind up
D
You'll wind up in my arms
D
First I have to break down your resistance
D G
to my charms, yes darling
G
I know it won't be easy
Bm
But I won't rest until I find a way
G A D
Everybody knows that Rome wasn't built in a day
[Verse 2]
D
How I'll make it happen I'm not certain
D
I'm working on a plan
D
And when I get it tight you'll believe
G
I'm your man
D
You don't know it yet but you'll surrender
Bm
When I make my play
G A D
But everybody knows that Rome wasn't built in a day
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
G
I'll offer you protection, 24-hour loving affection
G F#m
But it'll take time to make it right
G
Just look at what the Pharaoh did, when he built his pyramid
G A
Everybody knows that didn't spring up over night
D
There'll be a celebration
Bm
And a silver band will play
G A D
But everybody knows that Rome wasn't built in a day
G A D D
Rome wasn't built in a day
