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