From: Andrew Rogers
decades later as the theme from the American TV series 'China Beach'.
Vol. III_; on a good system you can hear those weird beeps bouncing all
around your room.  (You can also hear a couple of extremely crude splices
before each repeat of the chorus at the end.)
This is in Bb, but I think the 45 was sped up to B.  Anyone have an original
pressing to compare?
Intro:
        (oscillators panned across soundstage)
Verse 1 (first four bars instrumental):
        electric piano arr. for guitar:
        [Bb]
         v   v   v   v     v   v   v   v

        Bb
        Through the mirror of my mind
        Fm
        Time after time
        Gb                   Db
        I see reflections of you and me
Chorus 1:
           Gb       Db
                      Gb     Db
        The way life used to be
           Gb       Db
                      Gb       Db
        The love you took from me
Post-chorus 1:
        Gbmaj7            Ebm/Bb              Fm
        I'm all alone now,       no love to shield me
        Bbm Ab
            Trapped in a world that's
                      Gb
        A distorted reality
Verse 2:
        Bb [as per verse 1]
        Happiness you took from me
        And left me alone with only memories
        Through the mirror of my mind
        Through these tears that I'm cryin'
        Reflects the hurt I can't control
Chorus 2:
        'Cause although you're gone
        I keep holding on
        To the happy time, ooh
        When you were mine
        As I peer through the window of lost time
        Lookin' over my yesterday
        And all the love I gave all to you
Bridge:
        Bb   Eb  Dm   Gm
        / / (All the love) All the love that I've wasted
         Eb  Dm   Gm
        (All the tears) All the tears that I've tasted
         Eb Dm Gm     Gb   Ebm6/Gb  F     Bb
          /  /  /  /   /  /  /  /   /  /  /  /
                Ooh, yeah
Verse 3:
        Through the hollow of my tears I see a dream that's lost
        From the hurt that you have caused
        Everywhere I turn
        Seems like everything I see
        Reflects the love that used to be
Chorus 3:
        In you I put
        All my faith and trust
        Right before my eyes
        My world has turned to dust
Post-chorus 3:
        After all the nights I sat alone and wept
        Just a handful of promises
        Are all that's left of loving you
