G      G/F#   Em7        D9      D7   Cdim  G
Lately     I find myself    out gazing at stars,

  Bm7       D7        G          G7
Hearing guitars like someone in love;

 C        Am7     Cm7           G   Edim
Sometimes    the things I do astound me,

Am     Am+7    Am7   Am7/G   Am7 Cdim
Mostly     whenever you're around me.


G      G/F#   Em7      D9       D7  Cdim    G
Lately      I seem to walk as though I had wings,

Bm7       D7            G          G7
Bump into things like someone in love;

C           Am7     Cm7      G         A7
Each time I look at you I'm limp as a glove,

     D9          Am7     D7     G
And feeling like someone   in love.



(Instrumental interlude -- first two lines of first verse)

C        Am7     Cm7           G   Edim
Sometimes    the things I do astound me,

Am     Am+7    Am7   Am7/G   Am7 Cdim
Mostly     whenever you're around me.


G      G/F#   Em7      D9       D7  Cdim    G
Lately      I seem to walk as though I had wings,

  Bm7       D7            G          G7
I bump into things like someone in love;

C           Am7              G         A7
Each time I look at you I'm limp as a glove,

     F            D7          G
And feeling like someone in love.
