Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I saw two dreamers dreamin'
They al[C]most caused a spark
I [G]saw two [D]lovers in [C]paradis[G] e
[Am]right back at [D]the start
[G]I saw two [D]minds in the [C]world set [G]free
But it [Am]almost [G]broke my [F]heart[G]
Isn't [Am]it strange to [G]be right [C]now
[G]havin' [Am]you close to [D]me?[Am]

[Verse 2]
Much to [Am]my surprise
[F][G][Am][G][C]

[Verse 3]
[G]I saw
two schemes schemin'
They [C]almost caused a lark
They were [G]two brave [D]souls
on a [C]wild blue [G]spree
[Am]Right back [C]at [Am]the park[D]
They were [G]like two [D]ships
And [C]they sailed right [G]by each
[Am]other [G]in [Am]the dark[F]

[Verse 4]
[G]Wouldn't [Am]ya like to [G]be right [C]now
[G]Out where the [Am]actors [D]play?
[Am]So much for your disguise
[F][G][Am][G][C]

[Verse 5]
[G]I saw two souls
out searchin'
[C]They said their last goodbyes
And [G]I saw two [D]hearts of
pas[C]sion [G]then[Am]
Much to my sur[D]prise
[G]I saw two [D]hearts on [C]passion [G]bent
[Am]The kind which [G]mysti[Am]fies
[F]

[Verse 6]
[G]It is [Am]so strange to
[G]be right [C]now
[G]Having you [Am]on my k[D]nee[Am]

[Interlude 1]
Much to my surprise
[F][G][C][D][G][D]
[C][G][Am][D][G][D][C][G][Am][F]
[G]I gotta make

[Verse 7]
[Am]you see some[G]how
[C]

[Verse 8]
[G]I saw two minds that wandered
They [C]almost caused a wreck
They were [G]all checked [D]out for a
[C]wild blue [G]sea
[Am]When someone cried [G]hit [Am]the d[D]eck
[G]I saw two [D]minds in the [C]world set [G]wise
But I [Am]almost [G]broke my [Am]spec[F]s

[Verse 9]
[G]Wouldn't [Am]ya like to [G]be right [C]now
[G]Out where the [Am]actors [D]play
[Am]So much for your disguis[F]e[Am]
Much to [C]my surprise
[F]
