  G
I saw two dreamers dreaming
     C
They almost caused a spark 
  G       D         C   G
I saw two lovers in paradise 
Am         C      D
Right back at the start 


[VERSE 2:]
  G       D            C         G
I saw two minds in the world set free 
       Am     C        F
But it almost broke my heart 
G        Am         G/B      C
Isn't it strange to be right now 
G          Am       D    Am
Having you close to me
        C     F       G  Am  G/B  C
Much to my surprise


[VERSE 3:]
  G
I saw two schemers scheming
     C
They almost caused a lark
          G         D          C         G
They were two brave souls on a wild blue spree
Am         C      D
Right back at the park 



[VERSE 4:]
          G        D              C            G
They were like two ships and they sailed right by
     Am    C      F
Each other in the dark 
G            Am      G/B      C
Wouldn't you like to be right now
G             Am     D      Am
Out where the actors play 
            C       F       G  Am  G/B  C
So much for your disguise


[VERSE 5:]
  G
I saw two souls out searching
     C
They said there last goodbyes 
      G       D         C       G     Am
And I saw two hearts of passion then
        C     D
Much to my surprise



[VERSE 6:]
  G       D         C       G
I saw two hearts on passion bent
    Am         C    F
The kind which mystifies 
G        Am         G/B      C
It is so strange to be right now
G          Am    D      Am
Having you on my knee 
        C     F 
Much to my surprise


[INSTRUMENTAL:] G    C  D  G  D  C  G  Am  C  D   G  D  C  G  Am  C  F  


[BRIDGE:]
G       Am       G/B     C
I gotta make you see somehow


[VERSE 7:]
  G
I saw two minds that wandered
     C
They almost caused a wreck 
          G           D         C         G
They were all checked out for a wild blue sea 
         Am          C       D
'Til someone cried, "Hit the deck" 



[VERSE 8:]
  G       D            C         G
I saw two minds in the world set wise
      Am     C        F
But I almost broke my specs 
G            Am      G/B      C
Wouldn't you like to be right now
G             Am     D      Am
Out where the actors play 
            C       F        Am
So much for your disguise
        C     F 
Much to my surprise
