Gm                      A#            C
Holding on, that's what I do since I met you
       Gm                       A#           C
And it won't be long, would you notice if I left you
         Gm                                  A#
And it's fine for some 'cause you're not the one,
                C
you're not the one
   Gm      A#     C
There, there, there
   Gm      A#     C
There, there, there

D#         A#
All night long, laid on my
D#                         A#
Pillow, these things are wrong,
          F
I can't sleep, here!

Gm             A#         C
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely

A#        F/A     Gm7          F
I have decided to leave you forever
A#        F/A      Gm7               F
I have decided to start things from here
  A#         F/A             Gm7             F
Thunder and lightning won't change what I'm feeling
A#        F/A             Gm7      F
  And the daffodils look lovely today
A#        F/A             Gm7      F A# F/A Gm7
  And the daffodils look lovely today
        F        A# F/A Gm7 F
  Look lovely today

Gm            F          D#        Dm
Oooh in your eyes I can see the disguise
Oooh in your eyes I can see the dismay
Has anyone seen lightning?
Has anyone looked lovely?

And the daffodils look lovely today
And the daffodils look lovely today
Look lovely today
Look lovely

     A#           F/A          Gm7           F
Look lovely, look lovely, look lovely, look lovely
     A#           F/A          Gm7           F
Look lovely, look lovely, look lovely, look lovely
     A#           F/A          Gm7           F
Look lovely, look lovely, look lovely, look lovely
     A#           F/A          Gm7           F
Look lovely, look lovely, look lovely, look lovely
