Lots of versions of this one on here but none of the chords sound right to me...
I think this is closer.

[Verse 1]
Aadd2/E AMaj7/E
If a picture paints a thousand words,
G6/E D6/E
then why can't I paint you?
Dm/E A Dm/E E
The words will never show, the you I've come to know.
[Verse 2]
Aadd2/E AMaj7/E
If a face could launch a thousand ships,
G6/E D6/E
then where am I to go?
Dm/E A Dm/E E
There's no one home but you, you're all that's left me too.
[Chorus]
F#m F#m/F F#m7 F#m6
And when my love for life is running dry,
Bm BmMaj7 Bm7 E7
you come and pour yourself on me.
[Verse 3]
Aadd2/E AMaj7/E
If a man could be two places,
G6/E D6/E
at one time,I'd be with you.
Dm/E A Dm/E E
Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way.
[Verse 4]
Aadd2/E AMaj7/E
If the world should stop revolving,
G6/E D6/E
spinning slowly down to die
Dm/E A Dm/E E
I'd spend the end with you, and when the world was through
[Chorus]
F#m F#m/F F#m7 F#m6
Then one by one, the stars would all go out,
Bm BmMaj7 Bm7 E7
then you and I would simply fly a way
