I wrote a song for [D] you
And all the things you do [Cmaj7]
And it was called "Yellow"

Oh, what a thing to have done [Cmaj7]
And it was all yellow [G] ([Gsus4] [G])
[Chorus 1]
[Cmaj7] Your skin
[Em7] Oh yeah, your [D] skin and bones

Oh, what a thing to do [Cmaj7]
And it was all yellow [G] [Gsus4]
[Chorus 2]
[C] Your skin
[Em7] Oh yeah, your [D] skin and bones
