[Verso 1]

C                               F 
He lies all alone in his bed he thinks of the weekend they met 
        G7                                         C     Dm G7 
His old heart will never forget their worldwind romance 
C                                 F 
He'd answer if someone should ask that somehow she slipped through his grasp 
G7                                                 C      Dm 
His future is linked to the past by the ghost of a chance

G7           C                       F    Em 
He hears her voice as she enters the room 
    Dm                      G7                      C    Dm G7 
She offers her soft hand to him in the light of the moon 
             C                      F    Em Dm 
He holds her close they sway to the tune 
      F                       G7                      C 
For a while he is lost in the dance with a ghost of a chance 


[Verso 2]

      C                                        F 
He's moved by the gown that she wears and the single red rose in her hair 
       G7                               C     Dm G7 
In his mind he places it there all over again 
      C                                   F 
These moments in time hold him fast these memories out of his past 
      G7                                   C      Dm 
Won't die as long as he has the ghost of a chance
