Lyrics

Am I ask ing for the moon? Is it (Gmaj7)real ly so im plaus i ble That you and I could soon come to (Dmaj7)some kind of ar range ment? I’m not (Bm9)ask ing for the moon. I’ve al ways been a real ist, when it’s (Em7)real ly noth ing more than a (Dmaj7)sim ple re ar range ment. With one (Bm)roof a bove our heads, a warm house to re (F#m)turn to, we could (Em7)start with sep ’rate beds. I could (Dmaj7)sleep a lone or (F#7sus)learn to. I’m not sug (Bm)gest ing that we find some earth ly (F#)par a dise for (Em9)ev er. I mean, how (Cmaj9)of ten does that hap pen now? The (Bm)an swer’s prob ’ly nev er. But we could (Gmaj7)come to an ar range ment, a (Em9)prac ti cal ar range ment, and you could learn to love (F#7#5)me, giv en (Bm7)time. I’m not (Cm7)prom is ing the moon, I’m not (Abmaj9)prom is ing a rain bow, just a (Fm9)prac ti cal so lu tion to a (Ebmaj7)sol i tar y life. I’d be a (Cm7)fa ther to your boy, a (Abmaj9)shoul der you could lean on. How bad could it be to be my wife? With one (Cm7)roof a bove our heads, a warm house to re turn to, you would n’t have to cook for (Bb9sus)me, you would n’t have to learn to. I’m not sug (Cm)gest ing that this (Ebmaj7)prop o si tion here could last for (Fm7)ev er. I’ve no in (Dbmaj9)ten tion of de ceiv ing you; you’re far too clev er. But we could (Abmaj7)come to an ar range ment, a prac ti cal ar range ment, and per (D)haps you’d learn to love me, giv en (Fm9)time. It (Ab)may not be the (Cm7)ro mance that you (A)had in (Fm7)mind, but you could (D)learn to love me, (Db9)giv en (Csus2)time.
