Every once in a while    I'd
          Em7 Bm 
see her smile
           G            D 
And she'd turn my days around;
                  A(9)(Db)
A girl with those eyes,
                         Em7
Could stare through the lies,
    Bm              G  
And see what my heart was 
 A7(sus),A7
saying.
