Intro:

G  Gdim, Am7  F7 (x2)

Verse 1:

G                     Gdim            Am7               D7
 I've always come to, the conclusion, that 'but' is the way.
   Bbmaj7         G7sus                          C
Of asking for per-mission to lay something heavy on one's head.

G                    Gdim                   Am7            D7
 So I have tried to, not be the one who'll, fall into that line.
Am7                 D7            G7#5
 But what I feel in-side; I think you should know. And baby that's...

Chorus 1:

C          Am7              Em7   F#m  Baug  Em7b5
 You, you, you, made life's histo-ry,
F7                        G7#5          C     Am  C/G
 'Cos you've brought some joy inside my tears.

    C             Am7          Em7     F#m   Baug  Em7b5
And you have done, what no one thought could be;
F7                   G7#5          C     Am  G
 You've brought some joy inside my tears.

Verse 2:

G                         Gdim                Am7                D7
 I've always felt that to-morrow is for those who are too much a-fraid.
   Bbmaj7         G7sus                 C
To go past yester-day, and start living for today.

G                    Gdim               Am7            D7
 I feel that lasting moments are coming far and few be-tween.
Am7                   D7               G7#5
 So I should tell you of the happiness that you bring. Baby, it's...

Chorus 2:

C          Am7              Em7   F#m  Baug  Em7b5
 You, you, you, made life's histo-ry,
F7                        G7#5          C     Am  C/G
 'Cos you've brought some joy inside my tears.

    C             Am7          Em7     F#m   Baug  Em7b5
And you have done, what no one thought could be;
F7                   G7#5          C     Am  G
 You've brought some joy inside my tears.
F7                   G7#5          C     Am  G
 You've brought some joy inside my tears.

F7                   G7#5             C
 You've brought some joy inside my... tears.

And you have done, what no one thought could be;

 You've brought some joy inside my tears.
