[Intro]
 
C     Fmaj7/C     G      F
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
C                  Fmaj7/C  G               Em
 It's a little bit funny...  this feeling inside
Am              Am/G          Am/F#   F
 I'm not one of those who can, easily hide
C                  G         E         Am
 I don't have much money, but boy if I did
C              Dm              F          G   Gsus4 G
 I'd buy a big house where, we both could live
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
C           Fmaj7/C    G               Em
 If I was a sculptor... but then again no
      Am           Am/G         Am/F#      F
 or a man who make potions in a travelling show
C                      G                  E          Am
 Well, I know it's not much, but it's the best I can do
C              Dm            F            C   Csus4   C
 My gift is my song and this one's for you
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G                 Am        Dm            F
 And you can tell everybody, this is your song
Em7        Am           Dm                 F
 It may be quite simple, but now that it's done
Am                     Am/G
 I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
Am/F#               F
 that I put down in words
    C         Dm            F             G    Gsus4  G
How wonderful life is, when you're in the world
 
C     Fmaj7/C     G      F
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
C             Fmaj7/C  G                   Em
 I sat on the roof...   and kicked off the moss
        Am         Am/G                 Am/F#        F
 Well a few of the verses, well they've got me quite cross
C                   G           E                  Am
 But the sun's been quite kind, while I wrote this song
C                     Dm        F              G   Gsus4  G
 It's for people like you that, keep it turned on
 
 
[Verse 4]
 
C             Fmaj7/C    G                   Em
 So excuse me forgetting, but these things I do
Am            Am/G                 Am/F#            F
 you see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
C                     G              E    Am
 Anyway, the thing is, what I really mean
C              Dm           F              C   Csus2  C
 Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G                 Am        Dm            F
 And you can tell everybody, this is your song
G         Am            Dm                 F
 It may be quite simple, but now that it's done
Am                     Am/G
 I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
Am/F#               F
 that I put down in words
    C         Dm            F             G   Gsus4  G
How wonderful life is, when you're in the world
Am                     Am/G
 I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
Am/F#               F
 that I put down in words
    C         Dm            F             C    Fmaj7/C   G    F    C
How wonderful life is, when you're in the world

Grateful to be able to (almost) play this. As a beginner I appreciate it. Love the song!

It's a much easier version, in a slightly different key. Does not match with the song, but its a similar progression. I agree, capo 3 makes it close to the original key.
