[Verse 1]
Am
Will you have this dance with me?
F          E
Like we do once a year
Am
You smell like bygone times
F            E
Oh, how I've missed you, my dear
Am                 C
Let's dance and pretend we don't know
F                     E
What must happen when we hear the rooster

[Chorus]
Dm
cro ooooo oh ow
Bb
crooo ooo ooo ooow

[Verse 2]
Dm
Let's move to the song of the nightbird
Bb         A
Like we do once a year
Dm
You smell like roses and dirt
Bb           A
Oh, how I'll miss you, my dear
Dm      F
But now you must go
Bb             A
For we've just heard the rooster

[Chorus]
Gm

D#

[Bridge]
Gm        A               Bb                 D#
Oh, how I wish that this night would last forever
D#                    Dm
And ever and ever and ever

To sniff you up and breathe you in

Oh, I already miss you, my dear

[Chorus]
Dm

Bb
oh oo ooo oh oo ooo

Dm      F
But now I must go
Bb                      A
I'm walking away to the sound of the rooster’s

And ever and ever and ever
