Your Song

Elton John

8

[Verse 1]

It's a little bit funny

This feelin' inside

I'm not one of those who can easily hide

I don't have much money, but boy, if I did

I'd buy a big house where we both could live

[Verse 2]

If I was a sculptor, heh

But then again, no

Or a man who makes potions in a travellin' show, oh

I know it's not much, but it's the best I can do

My gift is my song and this one's for you

[Chorus]

And you can tell everybody

This is your song

It may be quite simple, but

Now that it's done

I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind

That I put down in words

How wonderful life is

While you're in the world

[Verse 3]

I sat on the roof

And kicked off the moss

Well, a few of the verses

Well, they've got me quite cross

But the sun's been quite kind

While I wrote this song

It's for people like you that keep it turned on

[Verse 4]

So excuse me forgettin'

But these things I do

You see, I've forgotten

If they're green or they're blue

Anyway, the thing is

What I really mean

Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen

[Chorus]

And you can tell everybody

This is the song

It may be quite simple, but

Now that it's done

I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind

That I put down in words

How wonderful life is

While you're in the world

[Outro]

I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind

That I put down in words

How wonderful life is

While you're in the world
