G           A5              C
This is my five string serenade

G           A5           C
Beneath the water I (we) play
                  (verse 4)
G                  A5              C
And while (though) I'm playing for you
         (Verse 4)
G                A5           C     
It could (might) be raining there too
       (Verse 3+4)

Chorus:
C                  D
And on my easel I drew
C                       D
While I was thinking of you
C                      D
And on the roof of my head
C                         D
In came my five string serenade

End:
G           C               G(strum)
This is my five string serenade
