Verse 1:
Gm [verse 1: hold 2 extra beats]
I didn't know you were the one for me, I couldn't see
Fm
But you were waiting for
Gm
Someone to come along and help you out to sing your song
Fm
And I was changing
Chorus:
Ebm Fm
All I see is you
Ebm Fm Gm [1: Dm, to post-chorus; 2: D, to bridge]
All I feel is you for me
Post-chorus:
Cm Dm
And I would really like to watch you ride
Cm Dm
And always feel you by my side
Cm Dm
I would really like to watch you ride
Ebm
All on me
Verse 2:
Now I go stumblin' to the sky and I seem to fly so high
I see you, I feel you
You have a way of walkin' 'round, your feet they never touch the ground
And you are shining
[repeat chorus; to bridge]
Bridge:
[8-bar bass solo over D]
D
Times don't change
Times don't ever change for me and I know
That you could be
The only thing in my world
The only thing that my mind could find for love
Love and peace of mind for me
For me...
Gm Fm
Oh, oh, oh...
Verse 3:
Your shadow in the morning sun becomes my fun and we can say
I love you, I love you
Now morning shines on silver beaches, your life flashes through the
reaches
Of my mind, of my mind
Coda:
Gm
Of my mind
Cm Dm
And my mind becomes alive with you
Cm Dm
It's all that I can do
Cm Dm
To sit here and let you blow my mind
Cm Dm
Blow my mind, you're so fine
Cm Dm
In my mind, you're so fine
Cm Dm
[Paul:] In my mind, you're so fine
[Grace:] (...fine) In my mind, you're so fine
Cm Dm
[Paul:] In my mind, in my mind
[Grace:] In my mind, you're so fine
Cm Dm
[Paul:] You're so fine
[Grace:] In my mind

Notes:
The chords may sound like 7#9s, but there's definitely no major
third in them. They're actually minor 7ths voiced with the 7th
and 3rd on top, with the low
E tuned down to
D to allow the root
finger reach:
