[G]Erica, with the windy yellow

[Verse 1]
[Eb]
hair,
dancing through the [Bb]day,
or moping by the [C]stair.
[G]My joy to kno[Bb]w my [Ebm]Erica
with the windy [F]yellow hair.
Yesterday I met [Bb]her running
home from school.
Her face was tear -stained.
[F]She didn't know I [G]knew,
[Gm]but I do, I do.
But [G]today she had a song [F]to sing
and [Eb]a poem she knew
and with a kiss and a [Ebm]hug,
well she just dashed away.
[Ebdim]She had things to do,[Dm]
I do [Bb]too, I do [G]too.
Lifesome [F]child,
I turn with care
when viewing you on step or stare.
[Bb]All my hope and love for you,
my Erika with the windy [C]yel[F]low [Bb]hair.[G]
I'll walk in the [C]rain by [G]your side,
I'll [C]cling to the [D]warmth of your [G]tiny hand,
I'll [C]do [D]anything to help you [G]understand.
[Em]I love[G] you more [C]than
[D]anybody can[G].
And the [C]wind will [D]whisper your [G]name to me
and [C]little birds will [D]sing along in [G]time.
Ah, the [C]leaves will bow [D]down
when [C]you [G]walk [C]by[Am]
And [G]morning [C]bell[D] s will ch[G]ime
And I'll be there when
[C]you're feeling dow[G]n
To [C]kiss away the [D]tears if you [G]cry
And [C]I'll share with [D]you all the
[G]happiness [Em]I've found
A re[G]flection [C]of the [D]love in your [G]eyes
And [C]I'll sing you the
[D]songs of the [G]rainbow
Whis[C]per of the [D]joy that is [G]mine
Ah, the [C]leaves will bow [D]down
when [C]you walk [Am]by
And [G]morning [C]bell[D] s will ch[G]ime
I'll walk in [C]the rain by [G]your side
I'll [C]cling to the [D]warmth of your [G]tiny hand
I'll [C]do anything [D]to help you [G]understand,
[Em]I'll[G] love you [C]more
[D]than anybody can[G].
And the [C]wind will [D]whisper [G]your name,
and [C]little [Am]birds will [D]sing along in [G]time.
Ah, the [C]leaves will bow [D]down
when [C]you [Am]walk by
And [G]morn[C]ing [D]bells [Dsus4]will chim[D]e[G]

[Outro 1]
I love you.
