Intro: D G D A 

Verse 

        D                      G 
The sun rises, and she's lying beside me 
            D                       A 
Lost in her dreaming, behind closed eyes 
       D                   G 
And the covers rest on her shoulders 
             D                            A 
Softly she's breathing, her head turned to mine 


[Refrão]
G                D 
If there was one picture 
G                       A 
That I could take in my life 
    D            G 
I'd take the one beside me 
                    D 
In the dawn's early light

Verse 

D                       G 
I've watched her many a morning 
               D                    A 
Careful not to wake her up from her dreams 
D                              G 
I could lie here and watch her forever 
                     D 
There ain't no sight better 
                  A 
That my eyes have seen
