Two tiny dots under the sun

Is it true? I just don't know

G minorGm          C minorCm        Gm/D              D MajorD
Memories of making love as if we didn't care

Eb MajorEb      FF         Bb majorBb   Gm7Gm7     C majorC
Did you sense the magic in the air? oh

Never once did words get in the way

      Fmaj7Fmaj7          E minor 7Em7        Am7Am7               D7/Gb
Is it only wild imagination? Or do you think like me?

G minorGm            C minorCm             Gm/D         D MajorD
Seven days of heaven left me happy but confused

    FF                         Bb majorBb   Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD
Too much to keep, too good to lose

     G minorGm             C minorCm              Gm/D          D MajorD
With every day that passes, I'm more eager than before

To find out what the lady has in store, oh


Chorus:

Fmaj7Fmaj7                 E minor 7Em7         Am7Am7           D7/Gb
wasn't it a smooth operation just drifting into place?

C/GC/G               G+G     Dm7Dm7 EbdimEbdim C/EC/E
So why not drift apart, leaving no trace?

       Fmaj7Fmaj7       E minor 7Em7        Am7Am7             D7/Gb
From a feeling of elation to eternal flame of mind

C/GC/G        Abdim7Abdim7           A minorAm     D7D7
Double back or leave it all behind oh


Fmaj7Fmaj7                  E minor 7Em7           Am7Am7          D7/Gb
wasn't it a smooth operation? Did we ever need to try?

Just a super fine sensation, a supernatural buzz

C/GC/G          Abdim7Abdim7      A minorAm      D7D7
Really is no reason just because oh


  Fmaj7Fmaj7                   E minor 7Em7        Am7Am7            D7/Gb
I knew we had a smooth operation for what we didn't say
