Verse 1
[Amaj7]I could be discontent[G#m] and chase the rainbow's end
[F#m7]I might win much more but [B7]lose all that is mine
[Amaj7]I could be a lot but [G#m]I know I'm not
[F#m7]I'm content just with the [B7]riches that you bring
[Amaj7]I might shoot to win [G#m]and commit the sin
[F#m7]Of wanting more than [B7]I've already got
[Amaj7]I could run away but [G#m]I'd rather stay
[F#m7]In the warmth of your[B7] smile lighting up my day
[B7](The one that makes me say...)

[F#m7]But I don't go for that [B7]power-crazy way
