Gene, Are You There

A Bm
We walk the streets together
E A
And through the city’s square
D
She reaches out to touch me
E A
And says “Gene, are you there?”

A Bm
She smiles when I am near her
E A
And she feels the love we share
D
She searches for my hand with hers
E A
And says “Gene, are you there?”

Chorus:
A D
But she’s never seen the moonlights
E A
Or the sunsets in the west
D
And she’s never seen the dawning of the spring
A E
And maybe for the best
A E A
But she needs me, she needs me and I’m there

She shows her love like a woman can
And I know she really cares
But her eyes don’t follow me around
She says “Gene, are you there?”

We walk the beach in the summer sun
And I am always near
Then I reach out and touch here hand
Saying “Honey I’m here.”

Chorus
