I had a date with a pretty ballerina
            G                 D
Her hair so brilliant that it hurt my
Ddim   D
eyes
            G
I asked her for this dance
      D        Ddim
And then she obliged me
Am       G
Was I surprised, yeah
C        Fdim7
Was I surprised,
   A      D
No not at all

I called her yesterday,
   Ddim                D
It should have been tomorrow
            G
I could not keep
            Ddim     D
The joy that was inside
             G
I begged for her to tell me
 D            Ddim
If she really loved me
Am          G
Somewhere a mountain is moving
C          Fdim7   A       D
Afraid it's moving without me

And when I wake on a dreary Sunday morning
       G             Ddim           D
I open up my eyes to find there's rain
              G
And something strange within said,
Ddim          D
go ahead and find her
Am              G
Just close your eyes, yeah
C               F        A         D
Just close your eyes and she'll be there"

A         D

A         D
She'll be there
