The chord names stay different throughout thew song, but the
way they are played varies. See the hints at the bottom if
you want to perfect playing this wonderful song.
Repeat this chord progression throughout every verse:
[G] Out my window [Bm] A mem[C]ory[D]
I'm dyi[G]n' inside [Bm] I know the way[C] it should be[D]
Though it w[G]as right [Bm] In front[C] of me[Abm7]
It's somethi[Am7]ng I just couldn't see[D]
Your lonely face, your lonely eyes
This is something you can't disguise
It's not just me, you feel it too
'Cause you know I belong with you
Prechorus
Look [D]at where we're [Bm7]going tell me [Am]what can I [G]say
We're [C]tracing our footsteps, we're [D]going the same way
Chorus
[G]Madeline, [Em]here we go [C]around again[D]
You [G]know it, I [Em]know it, don't [C]try to pretend[D]
You [G]know it could be [F]so much better [Em]than it's been[D]
Aoooo[C]oooooooooh, here we go [D]around again
Verse
I was empty inside, but I just didn't know
You were my ten thousand roses and I let you go
Before I make the same mistake just hold me in your arms
We belong you know it in your heart
Prechorus
Look at where we're going, no doubt in my mind
Can't you see It's meant to be ooohooohoooooh my
Repeat Chorus
(Now there's this funky bridge part with no words, and I
Don't hear any guitar, so I don't play anything)
Prechorus
Look at where we're going, tell me what can I say
We're tracing our footsteps, we're going the same way, oh my
Repeat Chorus 2x and fade out.
Some hints:
1) when you go to the chorus, it's a lot easier if you play
the C chord as X32010
2) At the beginning of the prechorus, play the D chord
as (10)(10)(11)(12)(12)(10) (I used parenthesis because
there are double digit fret numbers)
3) In the acoustic version, the Bm chord is played as 799777
4) Also in the acoustic version, instead of going into the funky
bridge part the go "here we go around again..." and hold it out.
For those of you wondering, just hold the C chord.
There it is! Hope you enjoy playing my favorite song!!!
