D

[Chorus]
D                     D
Lingering on, they're lingering on,
D                                           Em
each of the joys that came with the love we knew.
Em                     Em
Sparkling champagne, a walks in the rain,
     Em                   A                     D
it's hard to forget these moments I shared with you.

[Verse 1]
D                 D
Love may be lost, you may be gone,
D                        D7                 G
still there's a thousand memories to dream upon.
Gm                        D
Something went wrong but, darling, the song,
     Em               A     D
like fragrant perfume keeps lingering on.

[Chorus] (Sudden Key Change to Eb, put Capo on 1)
D                     D
Lingering on, they're lingering on,
D                                           Em
each of the joys that came with the love we knew.
Em                     Em
Sparkling champagne, a walks in the rain,
     Em                   A                     D
it's hard to forget these moments I shared with you.

[Verse 1] (Reprise)
D                 D
Love may be lost, you may be gone,
D                        D7                 G
still there's a thousand memories to dream upon.
Gm                        D
Something went wrong but, darling, the song,
     Em               A     D
like fragrant perfume keeps lingering on,
     Em               G/A  A               D     G      D    D/A    D
like fragrant perfume      keeps lingering on.
