[F#m]
You were a rainbow, [D]
I was the sun
[E]
Getting up too close might make [F#m] you run
You were a sailing ship, [D] I was in your hole
[E]
You feel just like a pot of [A] gold
You
[F#m] were a fish, [D] and I was a boat
[E]
We would get acquainted [C#m] in a [F#m] bed of brook
[C#]
[F#m] If you were a tree,
[D] I was the sky
[E] We would be together [C#m] until we [A] died
Oh, and [D] if you were a [Em] queen, [C#m] and I was [F#m] a king
[Bm] I'd throw away love [A] unless all you sing
Oh, [D] if you would let me [Em] kiss you [A] and hold you through [F#m] the night
[Bm] And into the [E] starry relief, all I'd
[F#m] let you ride on
[D] I would never reply, [E] and you'd never [C#m]
question why
[F#m] If you were a shadow, [D] and I was the wall
[E] If you could take [Bm]
[A] time, oh, [D] and if you were a fig, [A] and I was a [F#m] peach
[C#m]
[Bm] I'd throw away love, [A] and a song we'd sing
Oh, [D] if you would let me kiss you [C#m] and hold you through the night
[Bm] And into the starry relief, [A] all I'd let you ride on
[Bm] And into the starry [C#m] relief, [E]

Oh, [D] if you would let me [D] kiss you [C#m] and hold [A] you [C#m]
[Bm] through the night
And into the starry relief, [A] all I'd let you ride on
Oh,
[Bm] and into the starry relief, [A] all I'd let
[Bm] you ride on
And into the starry [E] relief,
