(Dm9)in the window over there.

(Cmaj7)The day had promised true (Am9)love.

Smiles awaken as we rise.

(Dm9)Our golden slumbers long gone.

Only (Bb)you got (Am)in my eyes,

and (Am9)now I'll never be the same 'cause you made me onew ver.

yes. (Cmaj7)If I were a bell,

(Cm7)baby, I would ring.

(Cmaj7)Tell the whole world that you are my (Bb)(Am)ev'rything.

(Cmaj7)If I were a bell,

(Cm7)baby, you would know (Cmaj7)that you are my only lover and it's (C7)wonderful.

If I (Fmaj7)were a bell, baby,

(Cmaj7)If I were a bell,

(Cm7)baby, you would know (Cmaj7)that you are my only lover and it's (C7)wonderful.

If I (Fmaj7)were a bell, baby,

(Cmaj7)If I were your bell, (Abdim)baby,

I would (G7)ring each day for you.

(Cmaj7)And no one
