Intro- I    E    I    B    I    E    I  B A       I     E     I    %    I  



    A                          E             A                   E
For you, there'll be no more crying,/  For you, the sun will be shining,

       F#mi      A             C#min           B  A                E     
I   %  I   %   I   %   I   
And I feel that when I'm with you,/      It's alright, I know it's right



    A                  E          A                   E
To you, I'll give the world  /  To you, I'll never be cold

	  F#mi      A            C#min        B  A                 E     
'Cause I feel that when I'm with you,/   It's alright, I know it's right



          B             A                            C#mi
And the songbirds are singing,/  Like they know the score,

       A                       B                          E       I    %    I
And I love you, I love you, I love you,/   Like never before.




Interlude -  II:   A   I   %   I    E    I    %   :II  




        F#mi    A      C#mi      B   A         F#mi         B              E    
And I wish you all the love in the world,  / But most of all, I wish it from myself.



          B              A                             C#mi                     
And the songbirds keep singing,  / Like they know the score,

       A                       F#mi                   E       
And I love you, I love you, I love you,/   Like never before, 

B              E    B                 E       B          E
  like never before.     like never before 



Another little garnish for the tune....

Try substituting Asus2 and Esus4 during the longer sections when the A and E held.
To get a feel of how they fit together, play an A then an Asus2, then back to A
again.  Alternate with the E, then Esus4, then E again as well.  The "sus"
(suspended) chords resolve very nicely back to their respective major chords.


   Asus2           Esus4

You can also open up the sound of the C#mi chord by playing it this way:
