[Intro]
Eb Gm7/D Ab/Eb C#9
 
[Verse]
Eb                       Gm7/D
  I don't know how, but nights get lonely now
Dm7                      G7
     They keep appearing in my eyes
Eb/Bb                 F7sus2/A
     Such a warm and tender glow
Ab/Bb
    For just one moment
Bb
  I remember all
 
[Verse 2]
Eb                     Gm7/D
  The love we had was never all that bad
Dm7                        G7
    There were smiles and there were tears
Eb/Bb                  F7sus2/A               Ab/Bb
    On that special starry night, with your arms around me
Bb
Held on tight
 
[Chorus]
Ab                    Fdim7
  Wasn't that the way
   Cm7
It was?
              Fm7
Two strangers reaching for
Bb             Eb7
  A worthless cause
Ab                    Bb/Ab Cm7
  Wasn't that the love we shared?
             Fm7           Ab/Bb
Or just the restless years
             Eb
When no-one cared
 
[Break]
Gm7/D Ab/Eb C#9
 
[Verse 2]
Eb                        Gm7/D
  I don't know why, it's hard to say goodbye
Dm7              G7
    Or even justify the end
Eb/Bb                    F7sus2/A
    You meant so very much to me
        Ab/Bb                   Bb
Then to let you go, start my life again
Eb                     Gm7/D
  The love we had was never all that bad
Dm7                        G7
    There were smiles and there were tears
Eb/Bb                    F7sus2/A
    Till that special summer day
        Ab/Bb                     Bb
When I reached out for you, you just walked away
 
[Chorus]
Ab                    Fdim7
  Wasn't that the way
   Cm7
It was?
              Fm7
Two strangers reaching for
Bb             Eb7
  A worthless cause
Ab                    Bb/Ab Cm7
  Wasn't that the love we shared?
             Fm7           Ab/Bb
Or just the restless years
             Eb Gm7/D Ab/Eb C#9
When no-one cared
 
[Outro]
Eb Gm7/D Ab/Eb C#9
 
C#9  Eb
Ahhh
