Intro 1

Verse 1
G 
Bet that there had
C 
been a girl like you around
F 
Some time ago when I still
Bb 
C 
had a dream or two
G 
Perhaps I might not have my head
Em 
C 
down on  the ground
F 
Watching while the jealous moon
G 
D 
C 
light beamed at you
G 
Beth,  if only you'd been
Em 
the one I   found
C 
F 
Instead of all those others
Bb 
Am 
that I tossed aside
D 
G 
Perhaps you might have worn
Bm 
Em 
another brighter crown
G 
F 
And the song would have gone
Bb 
on until the singer died
Dm 
D 
Gm 
D 
But life not as you know of it
Bb 
I would have made a show of it, a go of it
Eb 
C 
G 
C 
If  I'd had my chance to try
D 
Oh,
G 
Beth, if there could be a chance
Em 
C 
for us somehow,
F 
nobody knows the magic I
C 
Bb 
C 
would weave in you.
G 
Em 
Oh, in a world I've made a liar up to  now,
G 
C 
F 
sometimes I  find myself
C 
D 
almost believing you.
