VERSE 1:
If a [A] picture paints a [A/G#] thousand words
Then [A7] why can't I paint [D] you
The [Dm] words will never [A] show
The [Dm] you I've come to [E] know

VERSE 2:
If a [A] face could launch a [A/G#] thousand ships

There's [Dm] no one home but [A] you
You're [Dm] all that's left me, [E] too

And [F#m] when my [C#] love for [A] life is running [Bm7] dry
You [Em6] come and [F#7] pour your [D] self on [E] me

VERSE 3:
If a [A] man could be two [A/G#] places
At one [A7] time I'd be with [D] you

If the [A] world should stop re-[A/G#]-volving
Spinning [A7] slowly down to [D] die
I'd [Dm] spend the end with [A] you
And [Dm] when the world was [E] through

CHORUS:
Then [F#m] one by [C#] one the [A] stars would all go [Bm7] out
Then [Em6] you and [F#7] I would [D] simply [Dm] fly [/A] a-[A]-way
