Capo on 4

|C#m7 | | | |Ab |

|C#m7 |

Was there life before this love

|B |Badd2 B

Was there love before this girl I can see

|Ab |

Was there ever love for her before me

|F#m7 Fmaj7 |Emaj7 Ebm7 |Absus4

And if I look will she look back at me

|Ab

Is fantasy enough?

Was there heat before this flame

Were there flames before this fire in my heart

Was I wrong about it from the start

Am I in ecstasy or next to see that fantasy's to blame

Was there life before this love . . .

If I look up will she look back at me

Is fantasy enough?

|C# |

If this scene is in a dream

|Ab/C |

Then I'm perfect for the part I play

|Abm |

You can count on me to stand and say

|A/Eb | |Ebsus4 |Eb |A/Eb| |Ebsus4 |Eb |

"Was there ever life before this wonderful day?"

Was there heat before this flame

Were there flames before this fire in my heart

Was I wrong about it from the start

Am I in ecstasy or next to see that fantasy's to blame

If this dream's within a dream

Then I'll never swoon quite deep enough

No hypnotic trance quite sleep enough . . .

|A/Eb | |Ebsus4 |Eb |A/Eb | |Ebsus4 | |Eb | |Eb

If in this sweet dream I'm flying

I will never fly quite high enough

You will hear me crying high above

|A/Eb | |Ebsus4 |Eb

|A/Eb | |Ebs4| |Eb|Ab

"Was there ever life before this wonderful love?"
