Song: Sweet Thing (Van Morrison's cover)
[Intro]2x
E F#m A6 Amaj7 A6
[Verse]
E F#m A6 Amaj7 A6
I will stroll the merry way and jump the hedges first
E F#m A6 Amaj7 A6
I will drink clear clean water for to quench my thirst
E F#m A6 Amaj7 A6
I'll go watch the ferry-boats and I'll get high
E F#m A6 Amaj7 A6
Under a bluer ocean against the water's sky
E F#m A6 Amaj7 A6
I will walk and talk in gardens all wet with rain
E F#m A6 Amaj7 A6
I will never, ever, ever grow so old again
[Chorus] (p)
E E A A
Oh ohhhh, good god you're a sweet thing
E E A A
Oh ohhhh, good god you're a sweet thing
[Verse] (f)
E F#m A A G#m F#m E
I shall drive my chariot down your streets and cry
E F#m A A G#m F#m E
'Hey, it's me, tonight I'm dynamite and I don't know why'
E F#m A A G#m F#m E
You shall take me strongly in your arms again
E F#m A A G#m F#m E
I'll ask and I'll wonder if I ever felt the pain
E F#m A A G#m F#m E
We shall walk and talk in gardens all misty and wet with rain
E F#m A A G#m F#m E
I shall never, ever, ever grow so old again
[Chorus] (p)
E E A A
Oh ohhhh, good god you're a sweet thing
E E A A
Oh ohhhh, good god you're a sweet thing
[Verse] (f)
E F#m A A G#m F#m E
I shall raise my hand up into the night, to the night sky
E F#m A A G#m F#m E
And count the stars that are shining in your eye
E F#m A A G#m F#m E
Just to dig it all an' not to wonder, that would be fine
E F#m A A G#m F#m E
Satisfied not to read in between the lines
[Chorus] (p)
E E A A
Oh ohhhh, good god you're a sweet thing
E E A A
Oh ohhhh, good god you're a sweet thing
E E A A
Oh ohhhh, my my my my my sweet thing
E E A A
Oh ohhh oh oh, good god
