I know they were there, songs everywhere
C              G
only a moment ago.
G                 C    G                      C
I only blinked my eye; and now the world that I used to know
   Am              Bm
is changin' on me; why can't it be
Am            G
only a moment ago?
        G              C                  D
CHORUS:	Only a moment ago (only a moment ago)
                          G
	It was spring and I was singin'
                       C
	Only a moment ago
       	Am                    Bm
	I could see where the road would lead
	C                     D
	and what tomorrow was bringin'
G                      C     G                  C
Hey, Mister Dream-Come-True, why did you go and walk out the door
   Am                     Bm
It all went so fast; why couldn't it last
Am             G
only a moment more?

Why has the music stopped? (Ahh....) Where did all the happy people go?

I know they were there (know they were there)

Songs everywhere (songs everywhere)

Why has the music stopped?
