Down this street,
 C majorC  C/BC/B A minorAm
I ride a green bus,
D/F#D/F#  G+G     C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm
early, deep into town.
  C majorC C/BC/B  A minorAm
If I could speak,

if I could be
  D/F#D/F#  G+G     C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm
as I would like to be now-

and what could I bring you,
D/AD/A     A minorAm
today in the meantime?
D/AD/A      A minorAm
Fruit from the sunlight,
D/F#D/F#      C/GC/G
quartz from the bay?
  C majorC      G+G
And where will I find this,
D/AD/A     A minorAm
perfect and wondrous?

I look into shops,

I slip into rain.

slip into rain

gold, green, gold, for my friend.

I cannot find

a thing beautiful

enough for you again.
