Verse 1
It's a
[Em/e]wide world [Em/f#]out there,
so much
[Em/g]wider than im[Asus2]-agined
I [G]can't
quite put my [Asus2]finger on the [Em/b]pulse [C]
Of your
[Em/e]heart softly [Em/f#]beating
Just
be[Em/g]neath the raw silk [Asus2]sheen
That
re[C]flects the tints of [G]autumn from the [Asus2]hills [C]
Verse
