If your love were taken from me
 Em       C7M                     Bm               C7M 
Every color would be black and white.

It would be as flat as the world before Colombus.
 G                   D/F#                       Em           F             D2/E 
That's the day that I lose half my sight.

If your life were taken from me
 Em           C7M                                 Bm               C7M 
All the trees would freeze in this cold ground.

Sail to the edge and I'll be there, looking
 D2/E 
Down.
 G         D/F#                           Em                     C                                 G 
Those men who lust for land and for riches strange and new,
                     D/F#                 Em                             C                           G 
All those trinkets of desire, but they never will have you.
                         D/F#                     Em                     C                           G 
And they'll never know the gold or the copper in your hair,
           D/F#                               F                               D2/E 
How could they weigh the worth of you so rare.

If your love were taken from me
 Em       C7M                                         Bm               C7M 
Every light that's bright would soon grow dim.
 G                 D/F#                         Em 
It would be as dark as the world before Colombus.
 G                 D/F#                   Em             F 
Down the waterfall and I'd swim over the
 D2/E 
Brim.

Those men who lust for land and for riches strange and new,

All those trinkets of desire, oh they never will have you.
                         D/F#                     Em                     C                           G 
And they'll never know the gold or the copper in your hair,
           D/F#                               F                               D2/E 
How could they weigh the worth of you so rare.
