[VERSE 1:]
                   C majorC
I don't believe in miracles, if it's all the same by you

Your wishes would come true if I had my say
E minorEm          G+G
Whether it's right or wrong

The words of every song
 C majorC      G+G
Remind us of a love we knew

Where love should not go wrong, in yesterdays

There's a smile on every face
   C majorC        G+G
We're somewhere in the afterglow

Out there among the stars, out there among the bars

Be that as it may be

We are what we are
   C majorC        G+G
I'll find you at the afterglow
