Standard (EADGBE)

NOTES: C* can be played as C. It sounds better if played with C*.

G can be played normally (320003). This is just how I play it.

If Fmaj7 sounds weird at first, but try playing it with the CD.

If I could open my arms,

And span the length of the isle of Manhattan,

I'd bring it to where you are,

Making a lake of the East River and Hudson.

If I could open my mouth,

Wide enough for a marching band to march out,

They would make your name sing,

And bend through alleys and bounce off other buildings.

I wish we could open our eyes,

To see in all directions at the same time.

Oh what a beautiful view,

If you were never aware of what was around you.

And it is true what you said,

That I live like a hermit in my own head.

But when the sun shines again,

I'll pull the curtains and blinds to let the light in.

Sorrow drips into your heart through a pinhole.

Just like a faucet that leaks and there is comfort in the sound.

But while you debate half empty or half full,

It slowly rises, your love is gonna drown.
