Elton John - Your Song

[intro]
Eb  Ab  Bb  Ab

[verse 1]
Eb                   Abmaj7
 It's a little bit funny,
 Bb               Gm
this feeling inside
Cm
  I'm not one of
Cm7        Adim      Abmaj7
those who can easily hide
Eb                   Bb         G         Cm
 I don't have much money, but, boy if I did
Eb              Fm7        Ab               Bb
 I'd buy a big house where we both could live
Eb              Ab    Bb              Gm
 If I was a sculptor, but then again no
     Cm
Or a man who makes
Cm7           Adim         Ab
potions in a travelling show
   Eb             Bb
I know it's not much but it's the
   G        Cm
best I can do
Eb               Fm7     Ab                Eb
 My gift is my song, and this one's for you

[chorus]
Bb                 Cm
 And you can tell everybody
Fm7            Abmaj7
 this is your song
Bb         Cm
 It may be quite simple
 Fm               Ab
but now that it's done
Cm
 I hope you don't mind,
Cm7
 I hope you don't mind
Adim                Ab6
That I put down in words,
      Eb        Fm
How wonderful life is while
  Ab             Bb
you're in the world

[interlude]
Eb  Ab  Bb  Ab

[verse 2]
Eb              Abmaj7
 I sat on the roof
Bb                    Gm
and kicked off the moss
        Cm          Cm7
Well a few of the verses, well they've
Adim               Abmaj7
got me quite cross
Eb                     Bb
 But the sun's been quite kind,
 G                   Cm
while I wrote this song
Eb                     Fm7
 It's for people like you that
Ab                Bb
  keep it turned on
Eb                 Abmaj7
 So excuse me forgetting,
Bb                  Gm
  but these things I do
Cm                 Cm7
  You see I've forgotten if they're
  Adim              Abmaj7
green or they're blue
Eb                   Bb
 Anyway, the thing is,
                  G         Cm
what I really mean
Eb               Fm7        Ab              Eb
 Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen

[chorus]
Bb               Cm      Fm7            Ab
 And you can tell everybody this is your song
Bb        Cm            Fm               Ab
 It may be quite simple but now that it's done
Cm                      Cm7
  I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
Adim                    Abmaj7
That I put down in words,
      Eb        Fm
How wonderful life is while
  Ab              Bb
you're in the world
Cm                     Cm7
 I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
Adim                    Ab6
That I put down in words,
     Eb         Fm
How wonderful life is while
  Ab
you're in the world
