Your
Am
breath is sweet, your eyes are like
G
two jewels in the sky
F
Your back is straight, your hair is smooth on the
E
pillow where you lie
Am
But I don't sense affection,
G
no gratitude or love
F
Your loyalty is not to me but
E
to the stars above
Your
Am
sister sees the future
G
like your mama and yourself
F
You've never learned to read or write, there's
E
no books upon your shelf
And
Am
your pleasure knows no limits, your
G
voice is like a meadowlark
But your
F
heart is like an ocean,
E
mysterious and dark
