Queen Poet

 
Em                                C 
You're the fairest in all of the land 
          D                              
Many of kings and their kingdoms have fought for your hand 
Em                        C 
And I know I am no royal man 
                 D                      
But if I could give you the world with my paper and pen 
 

 
Am 
I'd write all night 
  Em 
Lyrics and rhymes 
  G                    D 
Tracing these lines through

Hoping they find you

Darling, you're a queen 
                 D                  G7 
And I'm just a poet writing these songs 
 G               Em          G 
Hoping you'll notice, notice me 
                     D               G7 
'Cause I'm just a helpless fool for you 
Em                C                      D 
I'll write this love 'til my hands are numb 
                              Em 
Darling, I'll sing to kingdom come 
           C

D Em                      C 
  As long as my heart has a beat 
            D                       
There's not a tower too high for these rhythms to reach 
Em                               Am 
And I'll scale these walls just like notes on a string 
           Em                   
Sing songs in your halls 'til you hear symphonies 
 

 
Am 
I'd write all night (I'd write all night) 
Em

'Til the day your heart can hear this sound
