[Intro]

D   G   A   G
 
 
[Verse]

D                 Gmaj7  
It's a little bit funny, 

A/C#             F#m
  This feeling inside

Bm             Bm/A   
I'm not one of those 

     Bm/G#      Gmaj7
Who can easily hide

D                  A     
I don't have much money,

    F#         Bm
 But boy, if I did

D             Em7        
I'd buy a big house where

G               A
 We both could live

 
D             Gmaj7 
If I was a sculptor, 

A/C#              F#m
  But then again, no

     Bm            Bm/A   
Or a man who makes potions
 
   Bm/G#         G
In a travelling show

   D             A      
I know it's not much but 

          F#        Bm
It's the best I can do


D              Em7     G    
My gift is my song, and this 
           D
One's for you
 
 
[Chorus]

A/C#              Bm     
And you can tell everybody

Em7            Gmaj7
 This is your song

A/C#       Bm         
It may be quite simple 

  Em               G
But now that it's done


Bm                    
I hope you don't mind,
Bm/A
 I hope you don't mind

Bm/G#                G6
That I put down in words,

      D        Em         
How wonderful life is while 

 G             A
You're in the world
 
 
[Interlude]

D   G   A   G
 
 
[Verse]

D            Gmaj7  A/C# 
I sat on the roof     and 

               F#m
Kicked off the moss

        Bm          Bm/A      
Well a few of the verses, well 

       Bm/G#           Gmaj7
They've got me quite cross

D                    A        
But the sun's been quite kind,

F#                   Bm
 While I wrote this song

D                    
It's for people like 

Em7     G                A
You that keep it turned on

 
D               Gmaj7 
So excuse me forgetting,

 A/C#                F#m
   But these things I do

Bm               Bm/A     
You see I've forgotten if 

         Bm/G#             Gmaj7
They're green or they're blue

D                  A  
Anyway, the thing is,
 
               F#   Bm
What I really mean

D               Em7        
Yours are the sweetest eyes
G              D
 I've ever seen
 
 
[Chorus]

A/C#              Bm      
And you can tell everybody

Em7            G
 This is your song

A/C#       Bm         
It may be quite simple 

  Em               G
But now that it's done

Bm                    
I hope you don't mind,

Bm/A
 I hope you don't mind

Bm/G#                G6
That I put down in words,

      D        Em          
How wonderful life is while

  G             A
 You're in the world

 
Bm                   Bm/A
I hope you don't mind, I hope 

You don't mind

Bm/G#                G6
That I put down in words,

     D         Em          
How wonderful life is while 
  G            D   G  A  G  D 
You're in the world
