Sounds like a melody    (video)    (midi)

 

    Dm - Am - Em - G (2x)

 

                                Dm                                            Am

1. It‘s a trick of my mind, two faces bathing in the screenlight,

                   Em                             G

    she‘s so soft and warm in my arms.

                                 Dm                                                    Am

    I tune it into the scene, my hands are resting on her shoulders

                        Em                           G

    when we‘re dancing away for a while.

                       Dm                                   Am

    Oh, we‘re moving, we‘re falling, we step into the fire

                 Em                                           G

    by the hour of the wolf in a midnight dream.

                       Dm                            Am 

    There‘s no reason to hurry, just start that brand new story,

               Em                                           G

    set it alight, we‘re head over heels in love, head over heels.

 

Dm                                                 Am

    The ringing of your laughter, it sounds like a melody,

Em                                                G

    to once forbidden places we‘ll go for a while.

Dm                                                 Am

     The ringing of your laughter, it sounds like a melody,

Em                                                G

    to once forbidden places we‘ll go for a while.

 

+  Dm - Am - Em - G

 

                                Dm                                               Am 

2. It‘s the definite show, our shadows resting in the moonlight,

                Em                               G

   it‘s so clear and bright in your eyes,

                                     Am                                             Am

    it‘s the touch of your sighs, lips are resting on your shoulder

                          Em                               G

    when we‘re moving so soft and so slow.

                         Dm                                     Am

    We need the ecstasy, the jealousy, the comedy of love,

                  Em                                             G  

    like the Cary Grants and Kellys once before,

                            Dm                                      Am

    give me more tragedy, more harmony and fantasy, my dear,

                     Em                                       G

    and set it alight, just starting that satellite, set it alight.

 

Dm                                                 Am

    The ringing of your laughter, it sounds like a melody,

Em                                                G

    to once forbidden places we‘ll go for a while.

Dm                                                  Am

     The ringing of your laughter, it sounds like a melody,

Em                                                G                               Dm

    to once forbidden places we‘ll go for, we’ll go for a while.

 

+  Dm - Am - Em - G (2x)     +  Dm - Am - Em - G (2x)

 

Dm                                                 Am

    The ringing of your laughter, it sounds like a melody,

Em                                                G

    to once forbidden places we‘ll go for a while.

Dm                                                  Am

     The ringing of your laughter, it sounds like a melody,

Em                                                G 

    to once forbidden places we‘ll go for awhile.
