Key: :[D] (w: David Gates)

INTRO:
[D] [D/C#] [D7] [G] [Gm] [D] [Gm] [A]

VERSE 1:
If a [D] picture paints a [D/C#] thousand words
Then [D7] why can't I paint [G] you
The [Gm] words will never [D] show
The [Gm] you I've come to [A] know

VERSE 2:
If a [D] face could launch a [D/C#] thousand ships
Then [D7] where am I to [G] go
There's [Gm] no one home but [D] you
You're [Gm] all that's left me, [A] too

CHORUS 1:
And [Bm] when my [F#] love for [D] life is running [Em7] dry
You [Am6] come and [B7] pour your [G] self on [A] me

VERSE 3:
If a [D] man could be two [D/C#] places
At one [D7] time I'd be with [G] you
To-[Gm]-morrow and [D] today
Be-[Gm]-side you all the [A] way

VERSE 4:
If the [D] world should stop re-[D/C#]-volving
Spinning [D7] slowly down to [G] die
I'd [Gm] spend the end with [D] you
And [Gm] when the world was [A] through

CHORUS:
Then [Bm] one by [F#] one the [D] stars would all go [Em7] out
Then [Am6] you and [B7] I would [G] simply [Gm] fly [/D] a-[D]-way

OUTRO: [Gm] [Gm] [D open]
