D                Fmaj7
I was thinkin of you and me...
G            A#          Fmaj7
makin love beneath a tree.
          Am                Gm C
And now I wonder, "Could it be?"
  D             Fmaj7
Thinkin of the times we had...
 G                 A#          F
some were good and some were bad.
        Am         Gm C
Guitar fightin the TV.

Chorus:
D                C          C  G
I was thinkin of you and me.
D                C          C  G
I was thinkin of you and me.
D                C          C  G
I was thinkin of you and me.
D                C          C  G
I was thinkin of you and me.

Looking at you just the other night,
dancing in the evening light
True love conquers all
Old man sitting there, touch of grey,
but he don't care
When he hears his children call

Chorus:
I was thinkin' about you and me
I was thinkin' about you and me
I was thinkin'' of you and me
I was thinkin' about you and me

Open up your eyes, see how life time flies
Open up and let the light back in
