Eb                        Ab7+		 
It's a little bit funnyyyyyy, Lord 
Bb	            Gm 
this feeling insiiiiide 
Cm                      Cm7 
I'm not one of those whoooooooo  
	      Ab7 
can easily hiiiiiide 
Eb		      Bb 
I don't have much moneeeey but 
G/B	  Cm 
boy, if I did 
Eb            Fm7 
I'd buy a big mansion 
Ab	                       Bb 
where we both could liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiive 
Eb              Ab7+	 
If, if I was a sculpture, Lord honey 
Bb	        Gm 
but then again, no 
Cm                   Cm7 
Or a man who makes pooootions        
	        Ab7 
in a travelin' show  
Eb	        Bb                    G/B                           Cm 
I know it's not much, I know it's not much, but it's the best I can do 
Eb               Fm7 
You gave a gift, Lord 
Ab	                 Bb 
and I'm gon' sing it for you 
Bb/D                    Cm                      	 
And you can tell everybooooooooody 
Ab7+              Eb/Ab               
that this is your song 
Bb/D       Cm                                                            
It may be quite, quite simple but that's 
Ab7+	   Eb/Ab               
how it's done 
Cm               Cm7			                        Ab7

Eb                     Ab7+	 
If, if, if I was on a rooftop 
Bb	          Gm 
I'd kick off my shoes 
Cm                   Cm7 
I'll write a few  veeeeeeeerses         
	              Ab7 
and then I get the bluuuuuuuues 
Eb		   Bb 
But the sun's been quite, quite kind 
G/B	            Cm 
While I wrote this soooong 
Eb                   Fm7                 Ab
