 Repeat this chord progression throughout every verse:
   Out my window  A memory
   I'm dyin'  inside I know the  way it should  be
   Though it  was right  In front  of me
   It's something I just couldn't  see
  Your lonely face, your lonely eyes
  This is something you can't disguise
  It's not just me, you feel it too
  'Cause you know I belong with you
  Prechorus
   Look at where we're  going tell  me what can  I say
   We're tracing our footsteps,  we're going the same way
  Chorus
   Madeline,  here we go around  again
   You know it,  I know it, don't  try to pretend
   You know it could  be so much better  than it's been
   Aoooooooooooooh, here we  go around again

  You were my ten thousand roses and I let you go
  Before I make the same mistake just hold me in your arms
  We belong you know it in your heart
  Prechorus
  Look at where we're going, no doubt in my mind
  Can't you see It's meant to be ooohooohoooooh my
  Repeat Chorus
  (Now there's this funky bridge part with no words, and I
  Don't hear any guitar, so I don't play anything)
  Prechorus
  Look at where we're going, tell me what can I say
  We're tracing our footsteps, we're going the same way, oh my
  Repeat Chorus 2x and fade out.
  Some hints:
  1) when you go to the chorus, it's a lot easier if you play
  the C chord as X32010
  2) At the beginning of the prechorus, play the D chord
  as (10)(10)(11)(12)(12)(10) (I used parenthesis because
  there are double digit fret numbers)
  3) In the acoustic version, the Bm chord is played as 799777
  4) Also in the acoustic version, instead of going into the funky
  bridge part the go "here we go around again..." and hold it out.
  For those of you wondering, just hold the C chord.
