[Verse 1]
[F]Dearest [G]Es meralda,
[C]in [Bb]another a[C]ge[F]

[Dm]Shadows singing [Em]so low
only [F]we could [G]hear

[Bb]shaking [C]to [F]the storm
[Dm]Outside it was ra[Em]ging,
but [F]inside it was [G]warm

[Verse 4]
We [F]said goodnight in the
[Dm]candle[G]light and [C]thun[Am]der

[G]underground
[F]Romance [G]lasts [C]forever,
