I looked out this morning and the sun was gone,
/ \
Turned on some music to start my day,
/ \
Then lost myself in a familiar song,
I closed my eyes and I slipped away...
It's more than a feeling (more than a feeling)
When I hear that old song they used to play
(more than a feeling)
And I begin dreaming (more than a feeling)
'Til I see Marianne walk a-way,
/ \
I see my Marianne walking away.
/ \
/ \
/ \
So many people have come and gone,
/ \
Their faces fade as the years go by;
/ \
Yet I still recall as I wonder on,
as clear as the sun In the summer sky
It's more than a feeling (more than a feeling)
When I hear that old song they used to play
(more than a feeling)
And I begin dreaming (more than a feeling)
'Til I see Marianne walk a-way,
I see my Marianne walking away.

When I'm tired I'm thinking cold,
/ \
I hide in my music, forget the day and
/ \
Dream of a girl I used to know
I closed my eyes and she slipped away.

She slipped a -

It's more than a feeling (more than a feeling)
When I hear that old song they used to play
(more than a feeling)
And I begin dreaming (more than a feeling)
'Til I see Marianne walk a-way,
G C Em D repeat and fade ...
