DM7        F#m
This is insane --

Em7      A7    Gdim   DM7  F#m7     B7    Cdim
All you did was say hello, speak my name.

CM7              FM7                     Bb   Gm7       A7     
Feeling your love  like a love I used to know   long ago.

DM7        F#m
How can it be?

Em7      A7        Gdim      DM7  F#m7     B7    Cdim
You're a different space and time come to me.

CM7                FM7                    Bb  Gm7      A7
Feel like I'm home  in a place I used to know    long ago.



Refrain:

Gdim Bm   Gdim  Bm  Bm7/E
Deja vu -- 

 Em7     F#m7     G        G/B     DM7  F#m7  Bm7 Bm7/E  G   G/F# Em7
Could you be the dream that I once knew?           Is it you?  

Gdim Bm   Gdim  Bm  Bm7/E
Deja vu --

Em7     F#m7     G          G/B        DM7 F#m7  Bm7 Bm7/E     G  G/F# Em7
Could you be the dream that might come true          shining through?

         DM7         Bm7         G        G/F#  Em7  G/B  Bm   Gdim
I keep remembering me,  I keep remembering you --    deja vu.


DM7        F#m
This is devine;

Em7       A7      Gdim    DM7  F#m7        B7    Cdim
I've been waiting all my life,     filling time.

CM7             FM7                                  Bb  Gm7       A7
Looking for you;    nights were more than you could know     long ago.


DM7        F#m
Come to me now;

Em7       A7      Gdim    DM7    F#m7     B7    Cdim
We don't have to dream of love -- we know how.

CM7              FM7                          Bb  Gm7        A7
Somewhere before,   it's as if I've loved you so,    so long ago.
