C         Cm7            G/B
if a picture paints a thousand words
   Gm/Bb                F/A
then why can't i paint you
    Fm/Ab              G
the words will never show
     Fm                G
that you i've come to know

(repeat chords)
if the face could launch a thousand ships
the where am i to go
there's no one home but you
you're all that's left me too

Chorus:

     Em       Am
and when my love
    G             Gm
for life is running dry
       Fm             G       C      
you'll come and pour yourself on me

Verse 2:

if a man could be two places 
at one time i'd be with you
tomorrow and today
beside you all the way
