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

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 

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

Chorus

 
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
