Verse 1:
[Eb]I had a [Ab]date with a [Eb]pretty ballerina
[Eb]Her hair so [Ab]brilliant that it [Eb]hurt my eyes
[Eb]I asked her [Ab]for this dance and t[Eb]hen she obliged me
[Bbm]Was I surp[Absus4]rised, [Ab]yeah
[Db]Was I surp[Gb]rised, no [Bb]not at [Eb]all[Ab] [Eb]
Verse 2:
I called her yesterday, it should have been tomorrow
I could not keep the joy that was inside
I asked for her to tell me if she really loved me
Somewhere a mountain is moving
Afraid it's moving without me

Verse 3:
And when I wake on a dreary Sunday morning
I open up my eyes to find that there's rain
And something strange within says, "Go ahead and find her
Just close your eyes, yeah
Just close your eyes and she'll be there"
Coda (repeat to fade):
She'll be [Eb]there.[Ab]..[Eb]
