C#m  A  E          B    C#m A            E
Sara, what you do me, is enlighten my mind,
    B
Oh wow, I said
C#m  A  E          B   C#m A              E
Sara, what you do me is,  make my soul unwind

     B            C#m                   A
Hey now 'Cos your hair is blonde, your eyes are blue
 E                       B
Half the guys I know are after you
C#m                  A
Cheer me up when I'm in a mood
   E                      B
So I thought I'd write a song for you

Chorus:
    C#m    A    E               B
And may I say, you look like an angel today
C#m    A    E               B                  C#m A
May I say, take me to the place where your mind lays
   E                  B
If only to make you smile today
     C#m       A        E               B
'Cos you are great, I thought I'd say that

Sara, reminds me of drunken talks in a hammock
Behind a can of Strongbow
Oh wow, I said
Sara, you say that you don’t look good when you do
Even with that soul

Your hair is blonde, your eyes are blue
Half the guys I know are after you
Cheer me up when I’m in a mood
So I thought I’d write a song for you

Chorus

May I say, you look great
May I play this to make your day
