Look at the stars, look how they shine for you,
                       E
and everything you do
                           B
Yeah, they were all yellow
                                     F#
I came along, I wrote a song for you
                           E
and all the things you do
                          B
And it was called Yellow
                       F#
So then I took my turn

Oh, what a thing to have done

And it was all yellow
