Sixpence None the Richer’s dreamy pop hit became a rom-com staple. The simple, jangly guitar arrangement and sweet melody make it a beloved acoustic song.

Tip: The intro uses a capo on the 2nd fret with a Cmaj shape. Without capo, play in D. Keep strumming light and jangly, letting the higher strings shimmer on each chord.

Full Song
Verse 1
D A Bm
Kiss me out of the bearded barley
G A D
Nightly, beside the green, green grass
D A Bm
Swing, swing, swing the spinning step
G A D
You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress
Chorus
G A D
Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight
G A D
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
G A Bm G
Lift your open hand, strike up the band
A D
And make the fireflies dance, silver moon’s sparkling
G A D
So kiss me
Verse 2
D A Bm
Kiss me down by the broken tree house
G A D
Swing me upon its hanging tire
D A Bm
Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat
G A D
We’ll take the trail marked on your father’s map
