Chords

[Verse 1]
  G         Am       D7
Lovely to know the warmth

       G                C
Your smile can bring to me

            G                Am7        D7       G  C D
I want to tell you but the words you do not know

  G          Am  D7
Sing me a lullaby

 G                    C
Of songs you cannot write

              G                  Am7     D7            G
And I will listen for there's beauty where there's love
[Chorus]
               D
And in the morning of my life

              Am           D
And in the evening of my day

        Am             C      D7          G  C D
I will try to understand in what you say...
[Verse 2]
   G           Am   D7  
Rivers of endless tides

   G                     C
Have passed beneath my feet

              G                 Am7      D7     G   C D
And all too soon they had me standing on my own

  G            Am        D7
Then when my eyes were closed

    G                C
You opened them for me

              G                  Am7      D7         G
And now we journey through our lives to what will be
[Chorus]
              D
And in the morning of my life

              Am          D
And in the evening of my day

        Am         C           Am       D
I will try to understand in what you say
[Chorus]
                  Bm                D
Through all that life can give to you

            Am                 D
Only true love will see you through

           Am               C       D7        G  C D
And will stand beside you now in what you say
[Instrumental] Verse Chords [Chorus]
              D
And in the morning of my life

              Am          D 
And in the evening of my day

        Am           C        D7        G  C D
I will try to understand in what you say
[Verse 3]
  G       Am       D7
Take me into your world

  G             C
Alone I cannot go

                G
For I've been here so long

        Am     D7     G   C D
You're leaving me behind

 G            Am
Walk with me now

  D7         G             C
Into your land of fairy tales

          G               Am7   D7     G  C D
And open up that book of pages in my mind
[Outro]
          G               Am7  D7     G  C D
And open up that book of ages in my mind

          G                Am7 D7      G  C D
And open up that book of pages in my mind

          G                Am7 D7     G
And open up that book of ages in my mind
