VERSE 1

D                              A
Captured my heart, captured my memory,
           Bm          F#m            
Captured a time for me, I could see,
 Em               A         
A time for me was gonna be.  (PAUSE)

Deep in my heart, deep in my memory,
          Bm         F#m
Deep in a part of me, heart of me,
Em          A
Meant to be History,
Em              A
Could it be that I'm still wanderin'

You and me a mystery.  (PAUSE)

Lost in a dream, lost in a fantasy,

Lost in what seemed to be, dreams to me,

Couldn't find no other reason,

It's marguerita time after nine,

You'll still always find me wanderin'
