Let's play a little game:

      G                              G/F#                      C
Is it bigger than a bread-box?    Or shorter than your maiden name?

         C          Cmaj7/B
Is it as high as an elephants eye?

           Am
Is it like mounting some great white steed?

            Cadd9                    Cmaj7
I mean this thing you have for him

      G             D/F#
This, shall we say, need?

Let's turn off the lights, love

Oh look, there's Johnny Carson,  If you'd rather watch instead

G                                      D/F#
I'm glad that we could have this little talk

                        Em
Goodnight, and pleasant dreams, my love
Em
