DR HOOK SING THIS IN C# (easier to play with Capo on 1st Fret and play in D
C# G#
I guess the dance is over now,
C# G#
So you just curtsey, and I'll bow,
F# C# G#
And ask the band to play us Auld Lang Syne.
C# G#
And I'll just take what’s left of me,
C# G#
Right back to where it used to be,
D# G# G#7
And you'll go sail your magic carpet far across the sky.
F#
I wish I could have made it
C#
More like the movies for you,
G# C# F# C# C#7
Some pretty Technicolor way that’s never been.
F#
I’m sorry when I kissed you,
C# G# A#m
You only heard me whisper,
D# D#7 G# G#7
You never got to hear those viol - ins, did you girl?
F# G# C# G# C# G# C# G#
No, you never got to hear those viol - ins.
C# G#
The castles that you built so high,
C# G#
Were just too steep for me to climb,
F# C# G#
And I guess these dirty streets of mine, were just to rough for you.
C# G#
I wish I could’ve helped you see
C# G#
Just one of your sweet childhood dreams,
D# G# G#7
But though I tried, I could not make not one of them come true.
