Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

I guess the dance is over now,

So you just curtsey, and I'll bow,

 And ask the band to play us Auld Lang Syne.

And I'll just take what’s left of me,

Right back to where it used to be,

 And you'll go sail your magic carpet far across the sky.

 I wish I could have made it

More like the movies for you,

Some pretty Technicolor way that’s never been.

 I’m sorry when I kissed you,

You only heard me whisper,

You never got to hear those viol - ins, did you girl?

 No, you never got to hear those viol - ins.

The castles that you built so high,

Were just too steep for me to climb,

 And I guess these dirty streets of mine, were just to rough for you.

I wish I could’ve helped you see

 Just one of your sweet childhood dreams,

 But though I tried, I could not make not one of them come true.

 I wish I could have made it

More like the movies for you,

Some pretty Technicolor way that’s never been.

 I’m sorry when I kissed you,

You only heard me whisper,

You never got to hear those viol - ins, did you girl?

 No, you never got to hear those viol - ins. Oh Oh

 I’m sorry when I kissed you,

You only heard me whisper,

You never got to hear those viol - ins, did you girl?

  AND FADE

No, you never got to hear those viol - ins.
