[E]I wanna write you a [A]song,
[E]one as beautiful[B] as you are[A] sweet.
[A]Just a hint of [E]pain for the [B7]feeling that I [E]get
when you are [A]gone, I [A]wanna write[B] you a [E]song.
[E]I wanna lend you my [A]coat,
[E]one that's as [B]soft as your [A]cheek.
So[A] when the world is [E]cold,
you will [B7]have a hiding [E]place you can[A] go.
[A]I wanna [B]lend you my [E]coat.
[A]Ooh,[E] [B] everything I [C#m]need I get from you. [A] [E] [B]
[A]Ooh[E], and [B]giving back is [C#m]all I wanna do. [A] [E] [B]
[E]I wanna build you a [A]boat,
[E]One as [B]strong as you are [A]free.
So [A]anytime you [B]think that your [B7]heart is gonna [E]sink
you know it [A]won't,[A] I wanna [B]build you a [E]boat.
[A]Ooh,[E] [B] everything I [C#m]need I get from you. [A] [E] [B]
[A]Ooh[E], and [B]giving back is [C#m]all I wanna do. [A] [E] [Em] [D]
