C5 
She 
                         Eb5 
May be the face I can't forget 
                           F5 
A trace of pleasure or regret 
                            C5              A5 
May be my treasure or the price I have to pay
 D5                             F5 
She may be the song that summer sings
                              C5
May be the chill that autumn brings
                            D5 
May be a hundred different things
             G5         C5      F5   D5   G5
Within the measure of a day.
 

C5
She
                         Eb5 
May be the beauty or the beast
                          F5 
May be the famine or the feast
                          C5           A5 
May turn each day into a heaven or a hell
 D5                           F5
She may be the mirror of my dreams
                        C5
A smile reflected in a stream
                             D5 
She may not be what she may seem 
  G5        C5    G5  C5 Eb5 F5 C5 A5 D5 F5 C5 D5 G5 C5
Inside her shell
 

Ab5                                  Eb5
She who always seems so happy in a crowd
                                      Db5 
Whose eyes can be so private and so proud
                                        C5 
No one's allowed to see them when they cry
 F5             Bb5                      Eb5 
She may be the love that cannot hope to last
            C5                       D5
May come to me from shadows of the past
                                   G5 
That I'll remember till the day I die
 

C5 
She
                      Eb5 
May be the reason I survive
                            F5 
The why and wherefore I'm alive 
                         C5                   A5 
The one I'll care for through the rough and ready years
D5                                F5
Me I'll take her laughter and her tears 
                      C5
And make them all my souvenirs
                               D5 
For where she goes I've got to be
             G5        
The meaning of my life is
F5    C5   D5  G5            C5
She, she,          [ohhhhh]  she
