[Verse 5] D G C D You're walking through N.B.C. and havin' a party (Eydie) C G And all at once there's a face that you could adore (Ann) Em Am You're looking in someone's eyes (Steve L) Bm D And you suddenly realize C D G That this could be the start of Dinah Shore (Steve A) [Chorus 2] Ab Cm Your destined lover, you discover (Dinah Shore) Ab Cm In a frightening flash, Bb Cm So keep your heart awake, both night and day! Ab Cm Because the meeting, may be fleeting Ab Cm As a lightning flash, Am Bbm C7 And you don't wanna let it slip a - way! [Verse 6] D G C D You're singin' a happy tune and havin' a picnic (Steve A & Steve L) C G And looking around, my friend, for someone to thank (Ann & Eydie) Em Am When suddenly there you spy, (Dinah) Bm D A sort of familiar guy, C D G And man, from where I am, it looks like Frank. [Verse 7] D G C D You're havin' a snow-ball fight or pickin' up daisies, (Frank Sinatra) C G Or out diggin' a Bar-B-Q by your swimmin' pool, Em Am When all of a sud-den you Bm D Look up and there's someone new; C D G And, this could be the start of something cool!

(Ann) Ab Cm Because the meeting, may be fleeting (Eydie) Ab Cm As a lightning flash, Am Bbm C7 And you don't wanna let it slip a - way! (Steve L & Steve A) [Verse 8] D G C D You're watchin' the sun come up, or countin' your money, (all) C G Or else in a dim cafe you're ordering wine, Em Am Then suddenly there he is, Bm D And, you wanna be where he is, C D And this must be the start of somethin', [Outro] Em This must be a part of somethin', (all) C D G This could be the start of somethin' live!
