(Intro)
B C#m
There's a bright light that's shinin' in your face
A Amaj7 B
You can't even see me at all
C#m E
Oh, you look like an angel out of place
A B7 E
At this downtown devil's bar
Emaj7
Do you wanna dance girl
A A6
You said no thanks
E Emaj7
And I watched you drift away
A
Well you had your chance
B7 C#m
You could've been the one
G#m A
Tonight you could've been the only one
B C#
For the rest of my life
G#m A
I'll be dreamin' of you when this dance is done
B7 E
Knowin' you could've been the one
Emaj7 A A6
C#m B
If I come back here I might see you again
A C#m B
And maybe you'd say yes
C#m B
But it's a losin' game I'm tryin' to win
A B E
And I can only guess
Emaj7 A
Do you have somebody (watchin')
A6
Who watches you
E Emaj7
As you let down your hair
A
By the light of the moon
B7 C#m
You could've been the one
G#m A
Tonight you could've been the only one
B7 C#m
For the rest of my life
G#m A
I'll be dreamin' of you when this dance is done
B7 E Emaj7 A
Knowin' you could've been the one
B7 E Emaj7 A B C#7
Knowin' you could've been the one
F# Bmaj9
Where do you go when the night ends
A#m C#7 F#sus4 F#
Are you just a dream that fades into gray
C# F# B
Visions of you will not leave me alone
F#m B7
Why did you have to turn away
C#m
You could've been the one
G#m A
Tonight you could've been the only one
B7 C#m
For the rest of my life
G#m A
I'll be dreamin' of you when this dance is done
B7 C#m
Knowin' you could've been the one
G#m A
Tonight you could've been the only one
B7 C#m
For the rest of my life
G#m A
I'll be dreamin' of you when this dance is done
B7 C#m
Knowin' you could've been the one ... (repeat and fade)
