*CAPO 6th FRET*

(Original Key: Eb)

Verse 1:

Am                      G                          
 I, I love the colorful clothes she wears, 
        F                               E7
And the way the sunlight plays upon her hair 
Am                     G                   
 I hear the sound of a gentle word 
       F                                       E7   G7
On the wind that lifts her perfume through the air

Verse 2:

Am                            G           
 Close my eyes, she's somehow closer now, 
F                                 E7
 Softly smile, I know she must be kind
Am           G                     
 When I look in her eyes, 
         F                    E7
She goes with me to a blossom world
