Verse 1

C F G Em

It’s a little bit funny, this feeling in-side

Am Em Am F

I’m not one of those who can easily hide

C G Am F

I don’t have much money, but boy if I did

C G F C

I’d buy a big house where we both could live

Chorus

Am Em

I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind

Am F

That I put down in words

C G F C

How wonderful life is while you’re in the world

Verse 2

C F G Em

If I was a sculptor, but then a-gain no

Am Em Am F

Or a man who makes potions in a traveling show

C G Am F

I know it’s not much but it’s the best I can do

C G F C

My gift is my song and this one’s for you
