[Dm]
[E]
If [A] a [B] picture paints a [E] thousand words, [Am] then why [Em] can't I paint [A] you?
The words will never show the
[Dm] you I've come [E] to know.
[A] If a [B] face could [E] launch a thousand ships, [G] then [Em] where am I to [D] go?
[E] There's [Dm] no one home [A] but you.
You're [Dm] all that's left [E] me to.
And [F#m] when my [F] life
[A] is running [D] dry, you [C#] come and [F#] pour
[Bm] yourself on
[E] me.
[A]
If a man [E] could be two places, at [Em] one time I'd be [Bm] with you.
[Dm] Tomorrow and [A] today, [Dm] beside you all [E] the way.
[A] If the world should stop [E] revolving, [Em] spinning slowly down the [Bm] dive,
[Dm] I'd spend the end with [A] you.
And [Dm] when the world was [E] through, then [F#m] one by [F] one [C#] the [A] stars would all go [D] out.
[C#] Then you and [F#] I [Bm] would simply fly [D]
[A] away.
