Once more with feeling (video)

G G7

1. We're just goin' through the motions

C

of the parts we've learned to play,

D G - D

never quite together like before.

G - G7

'Cause somehow darlin' something good

C

got lost along the way

D G

and our song, it ain't nothing special anymore.

G G7 C

So try it one more time with feeling, darlin', take it from the top,

D D7 G

let me feel those tears a fallin', I don't want to miss a single drop.

G G7 C

Darlin, make believe you’re makin' me believe each word you say,

D - D7 G

try it once more with feeling and we'll call it a day.

G G7 - C

2. Ah, you're reachin' out to touch me just the way you used to do,

D G - D

you're lookin' everywhere but in old Jerry's eyes.

G G7

But now, honey, that's an oldie and it's a goodie,

C

but them words ain't ringin' true,

D G - E

and you don't seem very sure of all your life.

A A7 - D

Oh, try it one more time with feeling, take it, take it from the top,

- E

woah, this one is gonna be the big one, honey,

E7 A

so give it whatever thing you got.

A A7

And even if it's that thing I'll love to give before

we go our separate ways,

E - E7 A

try it once more with feeling and we'll call it a day.
