Introdução: Verse 
 
Bm7   Fdim                       A7M         A6 
Laura         is the face in the misty light 
   Am7     Cdim                       G7M   G6 
Footsteps      that you hear down the hall 
    Gm7   Edim                   F7M         Dm6  
The laugh      that floats on a summer night 
            Bm5-/7    E7     A7M   A6     Edim 
That you can never quite recall.     And you see 
Melody 
Bm7    Fdim                      A7M             A6 
Laura       on the train that is passing through 
       Am7  Cdim                    G7M    G6  
Those eyes       how familiar they seem 
     Gm7 Edim                Bm7      D5+ 
She gave     your very first kiss to you  
         E7/9-   Edim           A7    D6/9     D7/9+ 
That was Laura,     but she's only a dream
