(I always thought this song was hokey, but it’s SO pretty…)
Your Song by Elton John – Chords & Lyrics #Ukulele
[1st VERSE]
Gbm A D A It’s a little bit funny, this feeling inside
Gbm A D A I’m not one of those who can easily hide, I
Gbm A D A Don’t have much money but boy, if I did
Gbm Bm D E I’d buy a big house where we both could live
Gbm A D A If I was a sculptor but then again, no
Gbm A D A Or a man who makes potions in a traveling show
Gbm A D A Oh, I know it’s not much but it’s the best I can do
Gbm Bm D E My gift is my song and this one’s for you
[BRIDGE]
Bm A Bm Gbm
Bm A Bm A
Bm A Bm Gbm
Bm A Bm Gbm …E
[CHORUS]
E Gbm Bm D And you can tell everybody this is your song
E Gbm Bm D It may be quite simple but now that it’s done
Gbm I hope you don’t mind
A I hope you don’t mind
=>B D That I put down in words
A Bm D A How wonderful life is while you’re in the world
[2nd VERSE]
Gbm A D A I sat on the roof and kicked up the moss
Gbm A D A Well, a few of the verses, well, they’ve got me quite cross
Gbm A D A But the sun’s been quite kind while I wrote this song
Gbm Bm D E It’s for people like you that keep it turned on
Gbm A D A So excuse me forgetting but these things, I do
Gbm A D A You see, I’ve forgotten if they’re green or they’re blue
Gbm A D A Anyway, the thing is, what I really mean
Gbm Bm D E Yours are the sweetest eyes I’ve ever seen
[CHORUS]
E Gbm Bm D And you can tell everybody this is your song
E Gbm Bm D It may be quite simple but now that it’s done
Gbm I hope you don’t mind
A I hope you don’t mind
=>B D That I put down in words
A Bm D A How wonderful life is while you’re in the world
Gbm I hope you don’t mind
A I hope you don’t mind
=>B D That I put down in words
A Bm D A How wonderful life is while you’re in the world
My pick for the most beautiful version; upon my first hearing it made me think of my baby son and I cried with joy and gratitude. Still feel that way. This one’s for you Gavin.
