[Intro 1]
[D][Em][D][Em]
[D][Em][D][Em]

[Verse 1]
[D]I never felt magic cra[Em] zy as this
[D]I never saw moons,
knew the [Em]meaning of the sea
[D]I never held emotion
in the [Em]palm of my hand
[D]Or felt sweet breezes in the top[Em] of a tree
But [A]now you're here
Brighten my [C]north[G]ern sky

[Interlude 1]
[D][Em][D][Em]

[Verse 2]
[D]I've been a long time that I'm waiting[Em]
[D]Been a long that I'm[Em] blown
[D]I've been a long time that I've wan[Em]dered
[D]Through the people I have kno[Em]wn
Oh, if you [A]would and you could
Straighten [C]my new [G]mind's eye

[Interlude 2]
[D][Em][D][Em]
[D][Em][D][Em][D]

[Interlude 3]

[G][D][C][G][D]
[C][G][A][A]

[Chorus 1]
[D]Would you love me [Em]for my money?
[D]Would you love me [Em]for my head?
[D]Would you love me [Em]through the winter?
[D]Would you love me [Em]'til I'm dead?
Oh, [A]if you would and you could
Come blow your [C]horn [G]on high

[Interlude 4]
[D][Em][D][Em]

[Verse 3]
[D]I never felt magic cra[Em] zy as this
[D]I never saw moons,
knew the [Em]meaning of the sea
[D]I never held emotion
in the [Em]palm of my hand
[D]Or felt sweet breezes in [Em]the top of a tree
But now [A]you're here
Brighten my [C]north[G]ern

[Outro 1]
[D](sk[Em]y)[D][Em]
