Lyrics

(Bm)O ver and o ver, I keep go ing o ver the (Em7)world

we (Em6)knew

(Bm9)once

when (B)you

walked be (Em11)side

(Em6)me.

(F#)That in con ceiv a ble, that un be liev a ble (Bm9)world

we (Bm)knew

(G#m11)when

we (C#7)two were in (F#)love.

And ev ’ry (Bmaj7)bright ne on sign

turned in (F#)to stars

and the (Bmaj7)sun and the moon

seemed to (F#)be ours.

Each (D#m)road that we took

turned in to (D#m)gold,

but the (D#m)dream was too much

for you to (C#)hold.

Now (Bm)o ver and o ver, I keep go ing o ver the (Em9)world

we (Em6)knew,

(B)days

when (G#)you

used to (F#)love

(Bm)me.

And ev ’ry (Bm)me.

O ver and o ver, I keep go ing o ver the (C#)world

(F#7)we

(Bm)knew.
