Verse 1

D                 Gmaj7    A/C#         F#m
It's a little bit funny,   this feeling inside
Bm             Bm/A      Bm/G#      Gmaj7
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
D                 A      F#            Bm
I don't have much money, but boy, if I did
D             Em7   G                   A
I'd buy a big house where we both could live

D          Gmaj7       A/C#            F#m
If I was a sculptor,   but then again, no
     Bm            Bm/A       Bm/G#        G
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
  D             A                 F#         Bm
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
D             Em7   G                  D
My gift is my song, and this one's for you

Chorus

A/C#             Bm        Em7          Gmaj7
And you can tell everybody this is your song
A/C#      Bm           Em                G
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
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/F#      Em            G             A
How wonderful life is while you're in the world

Interlude

D G/D A/D G/D

Verse 2

D            Gmaj7    A/C#               F#m
I sat on the roof     and kicked off the moss
       Bm         Bm/A         Bm/G#                Gmaj7
Well a few of the verses, well they've got me quite cross
D                  A     F#                       Bm
But the sun's been quite kind, while I wrote this song
D                    Em7 G                   A
It's for people like you that keep it turned on

D            Gmaj7         A/C#             F#m
So excuse me forgetting,   but these things I do
Bm           Bm/A                 Bm/G#            Gmaj7
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
D                 A                 F#  Bm
Anyway, the thing is, what I really mean
D             Em7      G                  D
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen

Chorus

A/C#             Bm        Em7          G
And you can tell everybody this is your song
A/C#      Bm           Em                G
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
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            G             A
How wonderful life is while 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/F#      Em            G             D    G/D A/D G/D D
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
