Nothing 'round here to me that's sacred
Em C
'Cept you, yeah you
G D G
there's nothing round here to me that matters
Em C
'Cept you, yeah you
C
You're the one that reaches me
G
You're the one that I admire
C
Every time we meet together
G
I feel like I'm on fire
C
Nothing matters to me
G Em
And there's nothing I desire
C Am
'Cept you, yeah you
Nothing 'round here I care to try for 'Cept you, yeah you Got nothing here to live or die for 'Cept you, yeah you
There's a hymn I used to hear In the churches all the time Make me feel so good inside So peaceful, so sublime And there's nothing that remind me of that Old familiar chime Except you, uh huh you
C
Used to run in the cemetery
G
Dance and sing and run when I was a child
and it never seemed strange
C
Now I just pass mournfully
G
By that place where the bones of life are piled
I know somethin' has changed
I'm a stranger here and no one sees me 'Cept you, yeah you Nothing anymore seems to please me 'Cept you, yeah you
Nothing hypnotizes me Or holds me in a spell Everything runs by me Just like water from a well Everybody wants my attention Ev'rybody's got something to sell 'Cept you, yeah you. Am G I'm in love with you.
