[Verse 1]
D G D
I’ve had these melodies and chords for quite a while
D G F#m B7
With nonsense lyrics to imply a certain style
Em7 A7 D D/C# Bm7 Bm7/A
Do I lack the whip of discipline, to find the words worth listening to?
Em7 Edim7 D Dsus4 D
I’ll just sing a song for you
[Verse 2]
D G D
Why do people tend to equate angst to honesty
D G F#m B7
Should real art always come from plain anxiety?
Em7 A7 D D/C# Bm7 Bm7/A
I rather sing of simple joys like love between a girl and boy
Em7 Edim7 D Dsus4 D Dsus2
So I sing a song for you
[Chorus]
F#m G D
And in the morning when she wakes up in my arms she’s looking fine
Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Dsus2
So glad she’s mine
F#m G
And in the evening when the stars are in the sky
D C Bm7
I know that I could share my life
E E7
To live as man and wife
A A/G A/F# A/E
Until the day she dies
[Verse 3]
D G D
Do I have to grow a beard in order to get heard?
D G F#m B7
Did Vincent cut his ear to make his painting work?
Em7 A7 D D/C# Bm7 Bm7/A
Shiny pearls before the swine, Rhinestones gathered from the Rhine
Em7 Edim7 D Dsus4 D
So I sing a song for you
[Break]
D G D D G F#m B7
Em7 A7 D D/C# Bm7 Bm7/A Em7 Edim7 D Dsus4 D Dsus2
[Chorus]
F#m G D
And in the morning when she wakes up in my arms she’s looking fine
Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Dsus2
So glad she’s mine
F#m G
And in the evening when the stars are in the sky
D C Bm7
I know that I could share my life
E E7
To live as man and wife
A A/G A/F# A/E
Until the day she dies
[Verse 4]
D G D
Now I’ve shaped these thoughts and melodies into a song
D G F#m B7
We’re in the final verse so now we can’t go wrong
Em7 A7 D D/C# Bm7 Bm7/A
And I really hope that you agree, it certainly makes sense to me
Em7 Edim7 D Bm7
I just sing a song for you - yeah!
Em7 Bb D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Dsus4 Dmaj7
I sing a song for you
