[Verse 1]
I [G]can[Daug] 't und[E]erstan[G#aug]d why I'm feeling so[Bm] blue I[G#aug]
thought [Am]that the melody [E]mel[F]lowed you [Eaug]too
[G#aug]I took a [Eaug]chance[Am][Cm]
with [D]our [Abdim]ro mance[E]
And jet[D]tisoned [Em]all my
[Bdim]cares and wo[E]es
[G#dim]The way t[E]hat [Eaug]I held [C]you[D]
an[Bm]d all that you sai[E]d
[Eaug]Brought [Am]back tender [Cdim]memories of
Ginger [F]and
[E]Fred
[Eaug]But they[Am] were pros[Cm]e,
[D]heaven [E]knows
That [A]isn't the [Am]way it [G]goes
I was [Dm]halfway to [G#dim]paradis e[Bdim] yes
[C]terday[A][F][Bb][Dm][G][C]
[Am]But I [Em]drifted off [Asus4]course on the
[D]Milky
Way
[B]Now [Em]I'll [Am]have to change my [Bm]tune
[E]It [Am]might have been better if [Bm]only I tried
[G#dim]But I wen[E]t an[Am]d blew it lik[D]e
[F]Bonnie [Fdim]and
[Fm]Clyde
[G#aug]Now you'r[Am]e gone,[Cm]
[F]I've [Bdim]lost not on[Eaug]e I guess [Am]that's the way it[D] goes[G]
[E]Over [Am]and over and over[D] again
[Bm]I kept telli[E]ng myself
[Am]I'd never [C]wander t[E]oo f[G]ar from the [E]melody
[Eaug]I keep i[Am]t simple and[C] mellow[F]
Every[Bm]body knows that I'm [E]a nice old fellow,
[Em]yet when I met her
[Bm]I didn't nee[Bdim]d a shove,
[Eaug]next thing I nee[G#aug]ded was love[Am][G]
[Am]She [Bm]hooked m[E]e[Eaug]
[Am]She had me like [Ebdim]a puppet on a [E]string,
I couldn't do a [Bdim]thing
[E]Now [Eaug]it's over[Am][C][Cm][F]
[Bdim]No more [Bm]rollin' i[E]n the cl[G#aug]over[E]
[G]I'm [C]lost and I'm loo[Em]king for lov[F]e[Bdim][G][C][Em][Am][Fm]
[Bbsus4][Bb][G][Em][F][G][E][D][A][D][E][Bm]
[Em][G][A][Am]
[Bm]If I[Abaug] should ev[Am]er[D]
[Cdim]Get anot[Bdim]her chanc[Bb]e[Eaug]
to start again
[Am]There's only [D]one thing
that I know for sure
[G]I'll be [E]back for [Eaug]more
[Am]Take love in my [Cm]stride bey
[F]ond the [Bdim]highland[Bm] s
And [E]out [Eaug]there,
[Em]there's [G]no [Am]other way [D]to go
[Bm]There I go, [Abaug]there I go, there I go[Am][Daug]
