F       G           F         G
Mother nature's been good to me
F               G              F        G
That's why I'm sitting in this cherry tree
         Em F        Em   F
But it's alright, it's alright
             G Am
It's not so bad
F           G        F G Am F G
I'm just a touch away

The shady lady from  shady lane
Is lying in my bed again
And it's alright, it feels good
It's not so bad
When she's just a touch away

Chorus:
 Am
Nothing much
                       F  G   Am F   G
Is all I ask  and it's alright,  ok yes
F           G     Am F   G
Light as a feather,  ok yes

Like a rosebud when the sun is high
She opens up before my eyes
And the light falls on her  wet skin
It's alright,
I'm just a touch away

Chorus:
Nothing much
Is all I know, it's alright, ok yes
Light as a feather,
and just a touch away

Put a finger to her lips again
She cries with pleasure, cries with pain
And it's alright, it feels good
It's not so bad
We're just a touch away

Chorus:
Nothing much
Is all I know
Not too fast
Not too slow
And it's alright
Soft as a feather
And just a touch away
