My love has (F6)no be gin ning, my love (Fmaj7)has no end.

No front or (F6)back and my love won’t bend.

And you don’t know, (C6)you don’t know, you don’t know (C)you don’t know

how (C6)glad I (F)am.

My love has (F6)no bot tom, ning, my love (Fmaj7)has no top.

My love won’t (F6)rise and my love won’t drop.
