C6\9
Listen to me and I'll sing you a song
                                                       F/G
and the time will go by till you never know where it's gone
Bbmaj7              F/Bb             E/A
Talk to me and I'll tell you my life story
Dmaj7                 F/G                   G/C
Walk with me and I'll tell you my dreams of glory
Eb
There we are
Gm7      F/Bb   Csus4 C  Gm7      F/Bb    G/C
Walking hand in hand,    somewhere on the sand
       Fmaj7                   Em7         A7-9    F/Bb   F#/B
at the end of the land and the edge of the shining sea

C6\9
Drifting through time and space on the face of
                                      F/G
a little blue ball falling around the sun
Bbmaj7   F/Bb             E/A                             Dmaj7
One in a million billion twinkling lights shining out for no one
F/G          G/C
      in the middle of the night
Eb
Here we are
Gm7      F/Bb   Csus4 C  Gm7      F/Bb    G/C
sparks in the darkness, speaking of our love
Fmaj7          Em7   A7-9    F/Bb  -- F#/B G/C G#/C#
burning down forever and forever

A/D                  G/A              Dmaj7                 F/G
Oh I don't know if I told you but you hold my heart in your hand
Cmaj7        G/C                  F/G
       And I found out something about you;
             Bbmaj7      F/Bb     E/A F/Bb F#/B
baby, without you, I'm a lonely man

C6\9
So though I never say that I love you,
                                          F/G
I love you, darling I do, Carly I do love you
    Bbmaj7           F/Bb           E/A
And though we are as nothing to the stars that shine above
           Dmaj7     F/G        G/C
You are my universe; you are my love
Eb
Here we are
     Gm7    F/Bb Csus4 C          Gm7     F/Bb  G/C
like children forever,     taking care of one another
          Fmaj7             Em7    A7-9   F/Bb
While the world goes on without us all around us
F/Bb F#/B G/C G#/C# A/D Bb/Eb B/E C/F
