G C
You're lovely to me yes you are
G D
We've traveled together
C
We've traveled so far
G D
Your tongue it is wise
C D Dsus4 D Dsus4
And there's love in your eyes deep and blue
G C
You're lovely to me yes you are
G D C
And venus ascending is surely your star
G D
I've seen how you shine
C D Dsus4 D Dsus4
But I can't make you mine it is true
Em C
You're a midsummer mountain in bloom
G Am
Heather and linden, the fruit of your womb
C Bm
There's honey and sap in the couch of your lap
D Dsus4 D Dsus4
Lady day
Em C
There's nothing you would not provide
G Am
When all is despair you are there at my side
C Bm
It is you that is near it is you that gives ear
D Dsus4 D Dsus4
when I pray
G C
You're lovely to me yes you are
G D C
You've been out on the road with a craving for tar
G D C
You know what you need yes you're canny in deed
D Dsus4 D Dsus4
And in name
G C
You're lovely to me yes you are
G D C
And I'll see you tonight in a local bar
G D
We'll be wed before dawn and by morning
C D Dsus4 D Dsus4
We're one and the same
Em C
The old ones they knew you my love
G Am
They set you to reason and sullied a dove
C Bm D Dsus4 D Dsus4
But how could they try you or demystify you with words
Em C
You're a city that's pulling me still
G Am
You keep me from sleeping and strengthen my will
C Bm
The gates they are strong but they open for song I
D Dsus4 D Dsus4
have heard
G C
You're lovely to me yes you are
G D C
You're the beautiful one that time cannot mar
G D
Your lost in the eyes of my love
C D Dsus4 D Dsus4
as she cries all for joy
G C
You're lovely to me yes you are
G D C
You're the elusive chord on my old guitar
G D
You're hidden 'neath veils that our love making fails
C D Dsus4 D Dsus4
to destroy
Em C
There's all I desire in your voice
G Am
I fear I am bold but you leave me no choice
C Bm
You know that to ask me to turn from my task would be
D Dsus4 D Dsus4
vain
Em C
You're a rose that for no man will yield
G Am
You have many names and all of them sealed
C Bm
Your empire is vast from the first to the last you
D Dsus4 D Dsus4
remain
G C
You're lovely to me yes you are
G D C
It's war all the time but you bare no scar
G D C
You glitter like sand as it runs through my hands to
D Dsus4 D Dsus4
the sea
G C
You're lovely to me yes you are
G D C
You're my drunken companion it's right that you are
G D C D Dsus4 D Dsus4
Your love takes me higher your love is the fire in me
