C                 C/B              Am7          Am7/G 
Kiss me once and kiss me twice and kiss me once again  
      G     C     Edim   G7 
It's been a long, long time 
Dm                 Dm7+                Dm7            Dm6 
Haven't felt like this, my dear, since can't remember when  
            Dm7    G9     C 
It's been a long, long time 
        G     Em7           Em5-/7             A4/7          A7 
You'll never know how many dreams I've dreamed about you 
    Dm7           Dm5-/7            G4/7             G7 
Or just how empty they all seemed without you 
     C              C/B               Bm5-/7         A7 
So kiss me once and kiss me twice and kiss me once again  
            Dm7   Fdim Em5-/7 A7                                             
It's been a long, long time   
            Dm7   Fdim  C                                             
It's been a long, long time
