 C7M        B7               Em7 
I see the crystal raindrops fall,
           Dm7    G7     C7M 
 and the beauty of it all
           B7             Em7 
 Is when the sun comes shining through
 C7M        B7               Em7 
To make those rainbows in my mind,
              Dm7    G7     C7M 
When I think of you sometime,
               B7                    Em7 
And I want to spend some time with you.

          C7M     B7              Em7    Ebm7    Dm7 
Just the two of us,    we can make it if we try,
 G7        C7M          B7             Em7 
Just the two of us,    just the two of us.
          C7M     B7              Em7    Ebm7    Dm7 
Just the two of us,  building castles in the sky,
 G7        C7M      B7          Em7 
Just the two of us,   you and I.

 C7M        B7               Em7 
We look for love, no time for tears,
            Dm7    G7     C7M 
wasted water' s all that is,
           B7             Em7 
And it don' t make no flowers grow.
 C7M        B7               Em7 
Good things might come to those who wait,
                  Dm7    G7     C7M 
But not for those who wait too late
              B7                Em7 
We' ve got to go for all we know.

          C7M     B7              Em7    Ebm7    Dm7 
Just the two of us,    we can make it if we try,
 G7        C7M          B7             Em7 
Just the two of us,    just the two of us.
          C7M     B7              Em7    Ebm7    Dm7 
Just the two of us,  building castles in the sky,
 G7        C7M       B7         Em7 
Just the two of us,   you and I.

 C7M        B7                Em7           Dm7    G7     C7M 
I hear the crystal raindrops fall on the window down the hall
           B7             Em7 
And it becomes the morning dew.
 C7M        B7                Em7           Dm7    G7     C7M 
And Darling, when the morning comes And I see the morning sun,
              B7                    Em7 
I want to be the one with you.

          C7M     B7              Em7    Ebm7    Dm7 
Just the two of us,    we can make it if we try,
 G7        C7M          B7             Em7 
Just the two of us,    just the two of us.
           C7M     B7                Em7    Ebm7    Dm7 
Just the two of us,  building big castles way on high,
 G7        C7M          B7      Em7 
Just the two of us,   you and I.
