[Verse 1]
D                  Gmaj7  A/C#               F#m
 It's a little bit funny,     this feeling inside
Bm               Bmadd11/A     Bmadd11/G#    G
  I'm not one of those who can        easily hide
D/A                   A  Asus2   F#              Bm
    I don't have much money, but,       boy if I did
D               Em          G               A    Asus4 A Asus2
  I'd buy a big house where   we both could live
 
[Verse 2]
D            Gmaj7     A/C#                F#m
  If I was a sculptor,      but then again no
     Bm            Bmadd11/A    Bmadd11/G#       G
Or a man who makes potions in a       travelling show
     D/A               A   Asus2         F#         Bm
Oh I     know it's not much but it's the best I can do
D               Em        G              D  Dsus4 D Dsus2
  My gift is my song, and   this one for you
 
[Chorus]
A/C#                  Bm        Em               G
     And you can tell everybody     this is your song
A/C#          Bm               Em                G
    It may be quite simple but     now that it's done
Bm                        Bmadd11/A
   I hope you don't mind,      I hope you don't mind
Bmadd11/G#              G6
     That I put down in words,
    D/F#      G6            G             A   Asus4 A Asus2
How wonderful life is while you're in the world

[Verse 3]
D              Gmaj7  A/C#                    F#m
  I sat on the roof,       and kicked off the moss
       Bm         Bmadd11/A          Bmadd11/G# Gmaj7
Well a few of the verses they've got me quite   crossed
D/A                    A    Asus2  F#                    Bm
    But the sun's been quite kind,    while I wrote this song
D                      Em       G               A   Asus4 A Asus2
  It's for people like you that  keep it turned on
 
[Verse 4]
D                 Gmaj7     A/C#           F#m
  So excuse me forgetting,       but these I do
Bm                 Bmadd11/A         Bmadd11/G#       G
   You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
D/A                      A  Asus2          F#      Bm
    Anyway, the thing is,   what I reallly mean
D                Em            G           D   Dsus4 D Dsus2
   Yours are the sweetest eyes   I've ever seen
 
[Chorus]
A/C#                  Bm        Em              G
     And you can tell everybody    this is your song
A/C#           Bm               Em                G
     It may be quite simple but     now that it's done
Bm                       Bmadd11/A
   I hope you don't mind,     I hope you don't mind
Bmadd11/G#             G6
    That I put down in words,
    D/F#      G6            G             A   Asus4 A Asus2
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
 
[Outro]
Bm                        Bmadd11/A
    I hope you don't mind,     I hope you don't mind
Bmadd11/G#              G6
     That I put down in words,
    D/F#      G6            G
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
 
   D             G/D         A/D           G/D         D

Nice tab, well laid out and as accurate as needed. (Everyone who has heard me play this knows what it is!!) Printed off and in the gig bag! Thanks

Very good tab but I think the only change I would make would be at the end of the chorus, as follows: D/F# Em G A Asus4 – A How wonderful life is while you're in the world (Changing the G6 to an Em) Whaddaya think?
