But you're tryin, you're tryin now
Dm7                        Am   Asus2   Am
 Another year and then you'd be ha-      ppy
Dm7                              Am   Asus2   Am
 Just one more year and then you'd be ha-      ppy

A                     Asus2     A                    Asus2
  Way down the street there's a light in his place
   A              Asus2          A                  Asus2
He opens the door, he's got that look on his face
       Em                              G
And he asks you where you've been, you tell him who you've seen
        D            Dsus4   D
And you talk about a- ny-     thing
 
A                      Asus2   A                 Asus2
 He's got this dream a- bout   buyin' some land
          A                 Asus2   A                  Asus2
He's gonna give up the booze and the one night stands
    Em                              G
And then he'll settle down, in some quiet little town
        D           Dsus4   D
And for- get about e- very- thing
 
[Chorus 2]
Dm7                       Am   Asus2   Am
 But you know he'll always keep mo-     ving
Dm7                       Am   Asus2   Am
 You know he's never gonna stop mo-     ving
     C           G                 D
Cause he's rollin', he's the rolling stone
Dm7                         Am   Asus2   Am
 And when you wake up it's a new mor-     ning
Dm7                       Am   Asus2   Am
 The sun is shining it's a new   mor-    ning

[Verse 1]
Umm,  [C] I would take the stars out of the sky for you,
[Am7] Stop the rain from falling, if you asked me to,
[Dm7] I'd do anything for you, your  [Am7] wish is my command,
[Dm7] I could move a mountain when your  [G7sus4] hand is in my  [G7] hand
 
[Verse 2]
Umm,  [C] Words cannot express how much you mean to me,
[Am7] There must be some other way to make you see,
[Dm7] If it takes my heart and soul,
You  [Am7] know I'd pay the price,
[Dm7] Everything that I possess, I'd  [G7sus4] gladly sacri -  [G7] fice
 
[Chorus]
Oh,  [C] you to me are everything,
The  [Cmaj7] sweetest song that I could sing,
Oh,  [Dm7] baby,  ...oh,  [G7sus4] baby!    [G7]   
To  [C] you, I guess, I'm just a clown,
Who  [Cmaj7] picks you up each time you're down,
Oh,  [Dm7] baby,  ...oh,  [G7sus4] baby!    [G7]   
 
[Bridge]
You  [Dm7] give me just a taste of love...
To  [G7sus4] build my hopes u -  [G7] pon,
You  [Dm7] know you got the power, girl,
To  [G7sus4] keep me holding  [G7] on,
So ... [C] now you've got the  [Cmaj7] best of me,
Come  [Dm7] on, and take the  [G7sus4] rest of me,
Oh, baby!

Umm,  [C] though you're close to me, we seem so far apart,
[Am7] Maybe, given time, you'll have a change of heart,
[Dm7] If it takes forever, girl, then  [Am7] I'm prepared to wait,
The  [Dm7] day you give your love to me...
Won't  [G7sus4] be a day too  [G7] late
 
[Chorus]
Oh,  [C] you to me are everything,
