CAPO: 4th Fret
INTRO: C F G C F C G C F C
I like the way you [F]smile[G]
It reminds me of a [C]happy child[F]
It makes me feel[C] a little less a[G]lone[G7][C]
I miss you when you're [F]gone[G]
The hours they stretch [C]on and on[F]
Like water dripping [C]slowly[G7] on a [C]stone[Am]
You're such a mystery[Em]
The way you look at me
With that [F]light that shines from [C]someplace I can't [G]go[G7]
Did it [C]take you by sur[F]prise[G]
When you [C]realized[F]
That you loved me, though you've [C]never[G7] told me [C]so[G7][C]
INTERLUDE: C F C G C F C F C
You know I want to [F]say[G]
So many things to [C]you today[F]
But you've got me feeling [C]like I'm flying [G]blind[G7][C]
I think if you were [F]here[G]
The words would ring [C]crystal clear[F]
From this heart that's learning [C]how[G7] to speak its [C]mind[Am]
You fight for truth with love
You're an [Em]iron hand in a velvet glove
It's the [F]kind of strength[C] that makes a gentle [G]man[G7]
But [C]I'm a child of the [F]wind
I've been [G]blown away but I'm [C]back again[F]
I just don't know if you [C]really[G7] under[C]stand[G7][C]
INSTRUMENTAL: C Am Em C F C G G7 C F G C F C G7 C F
Sunlight [C]moves across the [F]floor[G]
There's a soft breeze through the [C]open door[F]
A sleepy cat laying [C]on the window[G]sill[G7]
On this [C]lazy after[F]noon[G]
Like honey on a [C]silver spoon[F]
The memory of your [C]smile[G7] is with me [C]still
[Am]Don't tell me that it's wrong
To say I [Em]love you with a song
When the [F]words won't come,[C] I've seen you do it [G]too[G7]
This [C]road winds a[F]long[G]
One day [C]we'll be gone[F]
But I'll have this song to [C]bring me[G7] close to [C]you[G7][C][F][C][F]
I'll have this song to [C]bring me[G7] close to [C]you [F] [G7] [C]
