Your Song
Elton John
capo 3
C Fmaj7 G Em
It’s a little bit funny, thisfeeling inside
Am Am/G Am/F# Gmaj7
I’m not one of those who can easily hide
C G E Am
I don’t much money, but, boy if I did
C Dm7 F G Gsus4 G
I’d buy a big house where we both could live
C Fmaj7 G Em
If I was a sculptor, butthen again no
Am Am/G Am/F# F
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
C G E Am
I know it’s not much but it’s the best I can do
C Dm7 F C
My gift is my song, and this one for you
G Am Dm7 Gmaj7
And you can tell everybody this is your song
G Am Dm G
It may be quite simple but now that it’s done
Am Am/G
I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind
Am/F# F6
That I put down in words,
C Dm F G
How wonderful life is while you’re in the world
C Fmaj7 G Em
I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Am Am/G Am/F# G
Well a few of the verses they’ve got me quite cross
C G E Am
But the sun’s been quite kind, while I wrote this song
C Dm7 F G Gsus4 G
It’s for people like you that they keep it turned on
C Fmaj7 G Em
So excuse me forgetting butthese I do
Am Am/G Am/F# F
You see I’ve forgotten if they’re green or they’re blue
C G E Am
Anyway, the thing is, what I reallly mean
C Dm7 F C
Yours are the sweetest eyes I’ve ever seen
chorus
C Dm F G C
How wonderful life is while you’re in the world
