Chords with lyrics

Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)

Difficulty: Intermediate

Intro:

A     G G G# A
A     G G G# A
A     G G G# A
A     G G G# A

Verse 1:

A
The sun is up for me
  D           C       A
But I know a beauty that shines it out
A
I can hardly see
C       G        A
When she is up letting her veil down

A
But it could ever be
D           C        A
I’m just a shepherd hiding from the hounds
A
She’s a fantasy
   C            G          A
With flowers and bows, pretty coats and a silver crown

A     G G G# A

Verse 2:

A
Every day goes by
  D            C        A
The sun and the moon making out in the sky
A
We keep each other warm
 C         G         A
Snuggling up in the dark Mr. Sheep and I
A
I join my favorite dream
 D           C           A
She sings me lullaby's all through the night
A
And wakes me with a kiss
C
Sweet taste of apples and wild strawberries
             D
I’m in love with her majesty  yeah!

Chorus:

A           C
So whatcha gonna do? (ooh!)
    D          Am
I wanna build the dream for two
Am
So what’s it gonna be?
   C            D       Am
I’m jumpin’ up and down, but she can’t see
Am
I think you got a chance
   C        D
Just move on over and ask her to dance!
    C              D
I got silly feet and a lousy beat so how on earth could I make her want me

A     G G G# A

Verse 3:

A
I think it’s gonna rain today
  D            C          A
And I’m here on one hill and she’s on the other
A
The clouds are in my way
    C
As the sky opens up
G         A
Letting her veil down
A
Covering my queen
D               C          A
I’m still just a shepherd, so why should I bother
A
The valley in between
   C          G
Gets deeper and deeper as time passes by
   C        D
Gonna love her til I die
D
So why don’t I
D                     A
Just make like a prince and give it a try

Chorus:

A
So what’s it gonna be?
    C            D    Am
I could slingshot myself like a bumblebee
Am
So watcha gonna do?
 C         D    Am
Use Mr. Sheep as a parachute
Am
One the count of three
  C        D
I’m off to claim my fantasy
   C
In my best clothes buttoned up with a rose
     D
I’m on my way to make you love me

A     G G G# A

Bridge:

Fm      C
I’ll be your man
    Fm       C
In your castle made of sand
      Fm         Em   Am
Watch your head, my love, I’m coming over
B      E        A
Just so that I can hold your hand

Interlude:

A  D C
A  C G
A  D C
A  C G C D

Outro:
A        G
On the count of three
A          G
Aiming at the apple tree
A        G
On the count of two
A                 G
I'm gonna slingshot myself like a bumblebee
A        G   A
On the count of one!
G      D    G     D
Okay, here I go, in a minute or so
G       D       A
I'll open the door on my way to you
