The Rolling Stones

She Smiled Sweetly

Between The Buttons (1967)

Written by Jagger/Richards

[VERSE 1] 

Why do my thoughts loom so large on me?

They seem to stay for day after day.

And won’t disappear, I’ve tried every way.

[CBORUS 1] 

But she smiled sweetly,

She smiled sweetly,

She smiled sweetly,

And says don’t worry,

Oh no no no

[VERSE 2] 

Where does she hide it inside of her?

That keeps her peace most every day.

And won’t disappear, my hair’s turning gray.

[CBORUS 2] 

But she smiled sweetly,

She smiled sweetly,

She smiled sweetly,

And says don’t worry.

There’s nothing in why or when.

There’s no use trying, you’re here,

Begin again, and o’er again.

[VERSE 3] 

That’s what she said so softly

I understood for once in my life

And feeling good most all of the time

[CBORUS 3] 

‘Cause she smiled sweetly

She smiled sweetly,

She smiled sweetly,

And said don’t worry,

Oh no no no,

Oh no no no,

Oh no no no
