I Write The Songs

D               B7
I've been alive forever
Em7                             D7M
And I wrote the very first song
F#7                             Bm
I put the words and the melodies together
        E7          Em           A7
I am music and I write the songs

D               D7M                     Em7
I write the songs that make the whole world sing
A7              Em7       A7            D
I write the songs of love and special things
Bm                                      E7
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
Em7              A7                      D  Gm  D
    I write the songs, I write the songs

D             B7
My home lies deep within you
Em7                                    D7M
And I've got my own place in your soul
F#7                       Bm
Now, when I look out through your eyes
E7                      Em7               A7
I'm young again, even though I'm very old

( Em7  D )

C#7
Oh my music makes you dance
                C#m                   C#7
And gives you spirit to take a chance
F#7                                             Ebm
        And I wrote some rock 'n' roll so you can move
F#
Music fills your heart
F#7
Well, that's a real fine place to start
E7              Em7
It's from me it's for you, it's from you, it's for me
Em7                     A7
It's a worldwide symphony
