There's a place in Notting Hill
                     Cmaj7
You can go and visit still
D                         Dmaj7
    And if ever there's a way
                  Fmaj7

D                  Dmaj7
 Could I ever lie around all day
Fmaj7                 Cmaj7
 Eating chocolate and marmalade?
D                          Dmaj7
 Now it's time to find the perfect world
Fmaj7                     Cmaj7
 Dress myself up like the perfect girl

 Could I ever be in love like her?

Chorus:

D                       Dmaj7
    In the chaos of our lives
                     Fmaj7
Can we ever find the time
                   Cmaj7
To cherish feeling fine
D                           Dmaj7
    And in the aftermath of pain
                     Fmaj7
Can the balance be regained?
                   Cmaj7
Can we ever be the same?

  Sit down, turn the lights off
Amaj7             Dmaj7     Gmaj7       E
  Lie back, treat this sofa like - your own
Amaj7       Dmaj7
  Look out, here comes trouble
Amaj7       Dmaj7
  Look out, we're in a muddle
Amaj7           Dmaj7               Gmaj7        E     N.C.
  Keep running 'til you find you've reached your home
