Avalon
[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
F C Bb
Now the party's over
C
I'm so tired
F C Bb
Then I see you coming
C
Out of nowhere
F C Bb C
Much communication in a motion
F C Bb C
Without conversation or a notion
[Chorus]
Eb C# C Eb C# C G
Avalon
[Verse 2]
(same as verse 1)
When the samba takes you
Out of nowhere
And the background's fading
Out of focus
Yes the picture changing
Every moment
And your destination
You don't know it
[Chorus]
Eb C# C Eb C# C G
Avalon
[Bridge]
G C G (x4)
(Dancing, dancing)
When you bossa nova
There's no holding
Would you have me dancing
Out of nowhere
[Chorus]
Eb C# C Eb C# C G
Avalon
[Outro]
F C Bb C
