    x03230           x02220    xx0201           020100
The words will never show, the you I've come to know

If a face could launch a thousand ships, then where am I to go

There's no one home but you, you're all that's left me too

And when my love for life is running dry
 
     C#m      F#7       Bm      E7
    x02120   xx4320   xx4432  020100

[Verse 2]
 
     A                C#m           A7                Dadd9
If a man could be two places at one time, I'd be with you
  Dmadd9       A      Dm6              E7
Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way
       A                 C#m                 A7             Dadd9
If the world should stop revolving, spinning slowly down to die
    Dmadd9             A        Dm6                E7
I'd spend the end with you, and when the world was through
 
 
[Chorus]
 
     F#m    Amaj7/F  A/E                D6
Then one by one, the stars would all go out
     C#m     F#7      Bm     E7   A   D  Dm6   A
Then you and I, would simply fly away
