Am Cmaj7 C7 Dm7 Dm7



🎸 Verse :

Am              Cmaj7 C7     Fmaj7/D Fm6/D Fm6/D
 That's quite a num---ber to sing
Fmaj7/D
Spotlit, getting lowered in

Am          Cmaj7 C7            Fmaj7/D Fm6/D Fm6/D
 But you co-direct and play the twins
Fmaj7/D
And adapt the main theme from mandolins

Am           Cmaj7 C7     Fmaj7/D Fm6/D Fm6/D
 Conjured up won- -derful things
Fmaj7/D
The ballad of what could've been
Am        Cmaj7  C7   Fmaj7/D Fm6/D Fm6/D
 Over and ou------t
Fmaj7/D
Its been a thrill


🎸 Chorus:

      Dm    Dm/C      E             Am
I had big i-deas, the band were so excited
          Dm     Dm/C     E              Am
The kind you'd rather not share over the phone
            Dm Dm/C     E             Am
But now the or-chestras got us all surrounded
         Dm  Dm/C    Dm/B E       Dm       Dm/C   Dm/B E
And I cannot for the life of me remember how they go

Am C/G F Dm7 Dm7




🎸 Verse :

Am     Cmaj7 C7    Fmaj7/D
 Coordina----ted Release
Fmaj7/D
Nationwide festivities
Am           Cmaj7 C7 Fmaj7/D
 We had them out   of their seats
Fmaj7
Waving their arms and stomping the feet

Am            Cmaj7 C7     Fmaj7/D Fm6/D Fm6/D
 Some just hyster---ically sing
    Fmaj7
The ballad of what could've been

Am        Cmaj7  C7 Fmaj7/D Fm6/D Fm6/D
 Over and ou----------------t
            Fmaj7/D
Really, its been a thrill

The kind you'd rather not share over the phone

But now the or-chestras got us all surrounded
