X  -  means don't strum that string

The chord names stay different throughout thew song, but the
way they are played varies.  See the hints at the bottom if
you want to perfect playing this wonderful song.


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

   Verse

   I was empty inside, but I just didn't know
   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.
	
	There it is!  Hope you enjoy playing my favorite song!!!
