Em  G 
Once a while 
            D 
I see what's going on 
    Am 
And disappear 
          G         D           G       Em 
Into the world behind the one that's here 

G 
It never lasts 
            D 
As long as a dream can last 
         Am 
And then I'm back 
            G 
Into the ways 
 D             G        Em 
That make the days go fast 
Am          Em           Am     Em 
So grab my hand and make it last 

    D  Am    Em 
And hold me close 
                D 
Don't leave so soon 
               Am      G 
Let all the flowers bloom 
D       Am     Em 
And don't let go 
        D 
Or I will blow 
Am             Em 
Away into a different room 

G 
Is it so strange? 
                 D 
Tell me you feel the same 
             Am 
Or shut my mouth 
                G      D       G    Em 
I can't pretend I haven't said it now 

             G 
Let's just pretend 
                       D 
Our numbered days won't end 
     Am 
Infinity 
                       G      D         G           D 
This endless space and time four you and me 
Am          Em         Am     Em 
And yours and mine, forever we 

D         Am     Em 
Will hold me close 
                 D 
Don't leave so soon 
               Am         G 
Let all the flowers bloom 
D        Am       Em          D 
And don't let go or I will blow 
Am             Em 
Away into a different room 

Am             C                        Em               D 
And there's no door to get me back, to get me back there 
Am           C      Em         D 
There's no window to see 
Am          C                   Em                 D 
I tell myself that it was no, that it was nowhere 
Am      C            Em       D 
And all becomes a dream 

D    Am     Em 
Hold me close 
               D 
Don't leave so soon 
                Am         G 
Let all the flowers bloom 
D       Am       Em         D 
And don't let go or I will blow 
Am          Em            G 
Away into a different room
