Here's a lovely little song by Ben Harper, simple though it is. It's actually supposed to be tuned down a whole step [DGCFAD], but you can play it however suits your range. (Note: The C/B chord is played x20010) [Intro] C F C F

C         F      C
There is not a river wide

C       F       G  F
Not a mountain high

     C       F       C
And neither sin nor evil

      C            F      C
Could change how I feel inside

      C            F      C
Could change how I feel inside

    C         F              C
Not all the strength of the ocean

    C        F             G         F
Not all the heat from the sun, from the sun

    C               F       C            Am
Though others have tried, I just can't deny

    C       F       C
For me you are the one

    C       F       C
For me you are the one

     F      G      C
But true love is priceless

     F            G      C
For true love we pay a price

            F            G           Am       C/B
But there's nothing can keep me from loving you

    C      F      C
Not fire, no, not ice

    C      F      C
Not fire, no, not ice

       C    F       C
Like a hero or the champion

 C   F       G               F
You are the best, you're the best

     C        F        C
Like religion or superstition

C        F     C
With you I am blessed

C        F     C
With you I am blessed

        C     F         C
Now the river may grow wider

    C              F             G  F
The mountains may reach past the sky

    C          F        C        Am
And whether or not you feel the same

    C          F     C
My love shall never die

    C          F     C
My love shall never die

    F      G      C
But true love is give and take

 F         G      C
True love is sacrifice

            F            G           Am       C/B
But there's nothing can keep me from loving you

    C      F      C
Not fire, no, not ice

    C      F      C
Not fire, no, not ice
