[Intro 1]
[Em][G]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
If your [C]love were
taken [Bm]from [C]me[Em]
Every [C]color would be [Bm]black [G]and [C]white[G]
It would [D]be as flat [G]as the [Em]world
before [D]Columbus[G]
[D]That's [G]the day [D]that I l[G]ose half[Em]

[Interlude 1]
my sight
[F][Em][G][D][G]
[Em][G][Em]

[Verse 2]
If your [C]life were taken [Bm]from [G]me[C][Em]
All the [C]trees would freeze
in [Bm]this [G]cold [C]ground[G]
It would [D]be [G]as cruel as the
[Em]world before [D]Columbus[G]
Sail [D]to the edge and [Em]I'd be
[F]there looking [Em]down

[Verse 3]
[G]
Those [D]men who lust [Em]for land
And for [C]riches strange and [G]new
Who love those [D]trinkets of
de[Em]sire
[C]Oh,they never will have [G]you
And they'll [D]never know the gold

[Verse 4]
[Em]
Or the [C]copper in your [G]hair
How [D]could they weigh the [F]worth
of you so rare
[Em]

[Verse 5]
[G][Em]
If your [C]love were taken [Bm]from [G]me[C][Em]
Every [C]light that's bright
would [Bm]soon go [C]dim[G]
It would be as dark as the [Em]world
before [D]Columbus[G]
Down the [D]water[G]fall and [Em]I'd swim
[F]over the brim
[Em][D][Em]

[Verse 6]
[G]
Those [D]men who lust [Em]for land
And for [C]riches strange and [G]new
Who love those [D]trinkets of de[Em]sire
Oh, they [C]never will have [G]you
And they'll [D]never know the gold

[Verse 7]
[Em]
Or the [C]copper in your [G]hair
How [D]could they weigh the [F]worth
of you so [Em]rare

[Outro 1]
