INTRO:
[E] [E/D#] [E7] [A] [Am] [E] [Am] [B]

VERSE 1:
If a [E] picture paints a [E/D#] thousand words
Then [E7] why can't I paint [A] you
The [Am] words will never [E] show
The [Am] you I've come to [B] know

VERSE 2:
If a [E] face could launch a [E/D#] thousand ships
Then [E7] where am I to [A] go
There's [Am] no one home but [E] you
You're [Am] all that's left me, [B] too

CHORUS 1:
And [C#m] when my [G#] love for [E] life is running [F#m7] dry
You [Bm6] come and [C#7] pour your [A] self on [B] me

VERSE 3:
If a [E] man could be two [E/D#] places
At one [E7] time I'd be with [A] you
To-[Am]-morrow and [E] today
Be-[Am]-side you all the [B] way

VERSE 4:
If the [E] world should stop re-[E/D#]-volving
Spinning [E7] slowly down to [A] die
I'd [Am] spend the end with [E] you
And [Am] when the world was [B] through

CHORUS:
Then [C#m] one by [G#] one the [E] stars would all go [F#m7] out
Then [Bm6] you and [C#7] I would [A] simply [Am] fly [/E] a-[E]-way

OUTRO: [Am] [Am] [E open]
