[D] [C#m]
[D] [A]
[E] [A]
Sometimes [F#] I [F#m] recall [E] what others [A] have [D] said.
[A] Love is [F#m] for lovers in [D] love [A] and full grown.
Life's [F#m] for the living [D] and death's for [C#m] the dead.
[A] And the depth of a heart is [E] a [F#m] [E] fathom [A]
unknown.
Sometimes [E] [F#] when I [E] get to thinking [A] about you
And [F#m] all the things [D] that we've [A] never said to each other
[F#m] It seems such [D] a shame to go [C#m]
blue
When [D] there's so [A] many years to lie silent and dead.
I know [F#m] you know [E]
all [A] about
[G#] [A] life.
You know [F#m]
I know [D] [E] nothing [A]
at all.
Still [F#m] why should I [D] know [C#m] daily strife
[D] When the touch of [A] your hand makes [E] me glad I'm [A] so small?
[E] [A]
Time [F#] brings us trouble [E] as days [A] come and go.
[F#] [A] I know [F#m]
you know [D] [E] I'll [A]
understand.
Could you, [F#]
would you [D] suffer [C#m] a woe [D] when a blink of [A] your eye
And [E] I'm at your [A]
command?
[D]
Think [B] of the years [G] before we [A] [D] were a pair.
Years [Bm] lived apart, [G] we spent learning [A] [D] to farm.
Sowing, [Bm]
growing, [G] [F#m]
for [G] ourselves [D] and preparing [A] for each [D]
other's [E] [A] arms.
Love [F#m] is a flower, [E] blooms when we're [A] too young.
[E] [A] Luck it, [F#m] it's [D] gone, tend [E] it, [A] it grows.
We've been [F#m]
tending [D] since the first sprout [C#m] was sprung.
[D] To the most [A] patient farmer, [E] the best [A] harvest goes.
[E] [A] Sometimes [F#] I recall [E] what [A] others have said.
Love is [F#m] for lovers [D] in love [E] and [A] full grown.
Life's for [F#m] the living [D] and death's for the [C#m]
dead.
[D] And the death of [A] a heart is [E] a fathom unknown.
