(Dsus4) (Dm) (Dsus2) (Dm) (Dsus2) (D*) 2x

The (Dm)dawn creeps ‘cross the (Dsus4)pillow
Where the (Dm)face of an (Dsus4)angel
Lies (Gm)cradled in a nest of tangled (Dm)hair
And the (Dm)smile of con(Dsus4)tentment
On your (Dm)face while you’ve been (Dsus4)sleepin’
Keeps me (Gm)going, makes me know just why I’m (Dm)here

And I (F)don’t believe you’ll ever find
A thought will ever cross my mind to (A)leave
I’d die from (D)loneliness(Dsus4)
I need your (D)onliness(Dsus4)          
A place for my (D)soul to rest
Yes, I need your (A)love
To make my life beauti(D)ful

(Dsus4) (Dm) (Dsus2) (Dm) (Dsus2) (D*) 2x

The (Dm)alarm clock rings at (Dsus4)seven
And I (Dm)feel a stir beside (Dsus4) me
And I (Gm)hear your gentle footsteps on the (Dm)floor
I raise (Dm)up from my (Dsus4)pillow
Just in (Dm)time to catch a small (Dsus4)glimpse
Of a (Gm)housecoat swishing to a kitchen (Dm)door

And I (F)don’t believe you’ll ever find
A thought will ever cross my mind to (A)leave
I’d die from (D)loneliness(Dsus4)
I need your (D)onliness(Dsus4)          
A place for my (D)soul to rest
Yes, I need your (A)love
To make my life beauti(D)ful

(Dsus4) (Dm) (Dsus2) (Dm) (Dsus2) (D*) 2x

I (Dm)watch my shaving (Dsus4)razor 
Gliding (Dm)smoothly on the (Dsus4)face 
Of a (Gm)happy man who loves to live at (Dm)home
And (Dm)the sweetest voice I’ve ever (Dsus4)heard
Is cal(Dm)ling me to break(Dsus4)fast
And I (Gm)don’t  know how I made it on my (Dsus4)own

And I (F)don’t believe you’ll ever find
A thought will ever cross my mind to (A)leave
I’d die from (D)loneliness(Dsus4)
I need your (D)onliness(Dsus4)          
A place for my (D)soul to rest
Yes, I need your (A)love
To make my life beauti(D)ful

(Dsus4) (Dm) (Dsus2) (Dm) (Dsus2) (D*) 2x

How to practise this song

  1. 1

    Practise the barre chord F

    F is a barre chord. Lay your index finger flat across all strings and press firmly; practise it on its own until every string rings clearly before you use it in the song.

    Open
  2. 2

    Practise the change: Dsus2 ↔ A

    Play each chord for 4 beats, then 2, then 1 — with the metronome at 60-70 bpm. Only push the tempo once the change is clean and on time.

    Great first song

    Focus on clean chords — let every string ring. Speed comes by itself once the shapes are right.
