Elton JohnYour song
Elton John • 1970
D# G#/D# A#/D# G#/D#
D# G#maj7 A# Gm
It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside
Cm Cm/A# Cm/A G#maj7
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
D# A# G7 Cm
I don't have much money, but, boy if I did
D# Fm7 G# A#
I'd buy a big house where we both could live
D# G# A# Gm
If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Cm Cm/A# Cm/A G#
Or a man who makes potions in a traveling show
D# A# G7 Cm
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
D# Fm7 G# D#
My gift is my song, and this one's for you
A# Cm Fm7 G#maj7
And you can tell everybody this is your song
A# Cm Fm G#
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
Cm Cm/A#
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
Cm/A G#6
That I put down in words,
D# Fm G# A#
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
D# G#/D# A#/D# G#/D#
D# G#maj7 A# Gm
I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Cm Cm/A# Cm/A G#maj7
Well a few of the verses, well they've got me quite cross
D# A# G7 Cm
But the sun's been quite kind, while I wrote this song
D# Fm7 G# A#
It's for people like you that keep turned on
D# G#maj7 A# Gm
So excuse me forgetting, but these things I do
Cm Cm/A# Cm/A G#maj7
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
D# A# G7 Cm
Anyway, the thing is, what I really mean
D# Fm7 G# D#
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen
A# Cm Fm7 G#maj7
And you can tell everybody this is your song
A# Cm Fm G#
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
Cm Cm/A#
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
Cm/A G#6
That I put down in words,
D# Fm G# A#
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
Cm Cm/A#
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
Cm/A G#6
That I put down in words,
D# Fm G# D#
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
G#/D# A#/D# G#/D# | D#
