Written by Elton Jonhn / Bernie Taupin
G C D Bm
It's a little bit funny this feeling inside
Em Em/D Em/C# C
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
G D B Em
I don't have much money but boy if I did
G Am7 C D
I'd buy a big house where we both could live
G C D Bm
If I was a sculptor but then again no
Em Em/D Em/C# C
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
G D B Em
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
G Am7 C G
My gift is my song yeah and this one's for you
D Em Am7 C
And you can tell everybody this is your song
D Em Am C
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
Em
I hope you don't mind
Em/D Em/C# C
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
G Am C D
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
( G C/G D9/G C/G )
G C D Bm
I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Em Em/D Em/C# C
But a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
G D B Em
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song
G Am7 C D
It's for people like you that keep it turned on
G C D Bm
So excuse me forgetting but these things I do
Em Em/D Em/C# C
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
G D B Em
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
G Am7 C G
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen
D Em Am7 C
And you can tell everybody this is your song
D Em Am C
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
Em
I hope you don't mind
Em/D Em/C# C
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
G Am C D
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
Em
I hope you don't mind
Em/D Em/C# C
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
G Am C D G
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
