Verse 1:
N/C                 C    G     Am
They're playing our song, Margarita
              F              G
Dance it this last time with me.
            C    G     Am
It won't be long, Margarita
          F       G
Soon I'll be overseas.
       C                E
Let me know that you'll care
          F    F/C   Fm
When I've gone over there.
                    C          G
They're playing our song, Margarita.
              F    Dm7       C
Dance it this last time with me.


Verse 2:
G         C   G     Am
Kiss me again, Margarita.
          F         G
Give me a memory of you.
             C      G     Am
They say in France, Margarita,
          F             G
One more push, we'll be through.
           C               E
Yes, I'll write, but where from?
            F   F/C     Fm
All they'll say is 'The Somme'.
           C        G
Kiss me again, Margarita.
          F      Dm7 C
Give me a memory of you.


Chorus:
           Am          Dm
It's a new world, Margarita,
           G               C
That we'll build when it's through.
            Am          Dm
In that new world, Margarita,
         D           G
We'll be wed, me and you.


Verse 3:
N/C          C   G     Am
My old great aunt Margarita,
           F            G
She'd been blind thirty years,
                 C    G     Am
Would tell me of young Margarita
       F           G
Of her man and her tears.
           C          E
She would say 'He was tall,
            F       F/C    Fm
There's his picture on the wall.'
             C         G
My old great aunt Margarita,
           F     Dm7    C
She'd been blind thirty years.


Verse 4:
G             C   G       Am
And she would ask, 'Is he smiling?'
        F            G
I would stare at the frame,
        C   G         Am
But the sun was there shining
            F         G
Through her window again.
           C          E
Where that sun always shone
        F    F/C Fm
He had faded and gone.
              C          G
But she would ask 'Is he smiling?'
        F    Dm7      C
I would say 'He's the same'.


Chorus:
           Am           Dm
It's a new world, Margarita,
           G               C
That we'll build when it's through.
            Am          Dm
In that new world, Margarita,
         D           G
We'll be wed, me and you.
