🎸 Verse 1:
Em7                        Am7
If you ever go to St. Augustine
                                          B7
There's a chapel bell that chimes out the hour
             Em7          Am7
And a garden wall by the iron gate
                                       Bsus4
You can hear the bees buzz in the wild flowers

🎸 Chorus:
B7         Am7
And if you see a girl
                                   Em
Brighter than all of the lights in Rome
              Am7
Tell her that nothing holds a candle and to find her
                 Bsus4 B7
I've looked high and low
         Em7
High and low


🎸 Verse 2:
Em7                             Am7
Once upon a dream on a summer's day
                                 Bsus4
She was walkin' by and I felt my heart
B             Em7                    Am7
Make a sudden leap, that was all she wrote
                                    Bsus4 B
I tried to speak but I could never start


🎸 Chorus:
          Am7
So if you see that girl
                                   Em
Brighter than all of the lights in Rome
              Am7
Tell her that nothing holds a candle and to find her
                 B7
I've looked high and low
         Em7
High and low


🎸 Interlude:
Em7  Am7  Em7  Am7
E


🎸 Bridge:
        Cmaj7           Bm7
Now the sun goes down behind her
        Cmaj7                  Bm7    N.C.  Bm7
And the bells ring out their reminder


🎸 Chorus:
          Am7
So if you see a girl
                                   Em
Brighter than all of the lights in Rome
              Am7
Tell her that nothing holds a candle and to find her
                 Bsus4 B7
I've looked high and low
         Em7   Bm7 Am7
High and low


🎸 Outro:
         Em7
High and low
            Bm7 Am7  E7sus4
