"Legs and Lungs" by Henri Green
(Everything gotten by ear. Likely to have small inaccuracies.)
C D
'Love a man who lives kind of far away
F C
And his circumstances are unhelpful at best
C D
All the same, I've a fair few things to say
F C
And if I might, I'd like to get them off my chest
F C
Maybe I'm just being foolish or my brain's moving too fast
F Am G
Perhaps I'm being just plain stupid to ever think that we might last
F E Am
But I cannot ignore what's in my heart and in my mind
F G
So stop, just hear me out if you would only be so kind
C D
Maybe I could learn to drive, or you could learn to fly,
F C
Or we could live together and just boycott the outside
C D
We'll just live off the land and make our own rules to abide
F C
No need for any money as we stay in bed and hide
F C
And you'll tell me your stories about living life as you
F Am G
Your dreams and observations and how your favorite color's blue
F E Am
And I'll lie there in awe of awesome you and lucky me
F G
'Cause I had no idea just how great living life could be
C
Till there was you with your smile and your face and your wisdom
D
You with your knowledge of my sad silly system
F C
You, and how you take the world in your stride
C
You with your heart and your legs and your lungs
D
On limited wit and limited tongues
F C
Your life, and how it has impacted on mine
F C
Because I always found it hard to let just anybody in
F Am G
This outcast sociophobic who always hates at her own skin
F E Am
But then you came along and taught me beauty is within
F G
And to thank you oh my love where do I begin?
C
Because you with your smile and your face and your wisdom
D
You with your knowledge of my sad silly system
F C
You, and how you take the world in your stride
C
You with your heart and your legs and your lungs
D
On limited wit and limited tongues
F C
Your life, and how it has impacted on mine
C
From the tips of your toes to the top of your head
D
There's nobody else I would rather love instead
F G
And I love you, need you, would happily be your wife
Am
One day
F G
If that's okay for me to say at this point
C D
So if I learn to drive, there'll be no need for you to fly
F C
And we can live together and start our own little life
C D
We'll take days as they come there'd be no need to run and hide
F G
I know I've nothing to fear as long as I've you by my side
C
Because you with your smile and your face and your wisdom
D
You with your knowledge of my sad silly system
F C
You, and how you take the world in your stride
C
You with your heart and your legs and your lungs
D
On limited wit and limited tongues
F C
Oh, you have no idea how you've change my life
