G
[Verse 1]

G              D                 G
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

[Verse 2]

    G          D              G
Nothing 'round here I care to try for
      Em        C
'Cept you, yeah you
G              D            G
Got nothing here to live or die for
      Em         C
'Cept you, yeah you
C
There's a hymn I used to hear
        G
In the churches all the time
C
Make me feel so good inside
   G
So peaceful, so sublime
C
And there's nothing that reminds me of that
    G        Em
Old familiar chime
       C           Am
Except you, uh huh you

[Chorus]

C
Used to play in the cemetery
                                    G
Dance and sing and run when I was a child

and it never seemed strange
C
But now I just pass mournfully
                                          G
By that place where the bones of life are piled

I know somethin' has changed

[Verse 3]

G              D               G
I'm a stranger here and no one sees me
      C         Em
'Cept you, yeah you
G               D           G
Nothing anymore seems to please me
      C          Em
'Cept you, yeah you
C
Nothing hypnotizes me
         G
Or holds me in a spell
C
Everything runs by me
          G
Just like water from a well
C
Everybody wants my attention
    G                      D
Ev'rybody got something to sell
       C        Em
'Cept you, yeah you.

[Outro]
Am               G
I'm in love with you.
