I will strike the chord That's honey to your ears All that's sweet is yours I will hum a verse Of melodies rehearsed And all that's sweet is yours So here is my offering Just a downbeat and a string But to you it's a beautiful thing And here is what I bring Only downbeats and a string And to you it's beautiful I will strike the chord That's honey to your ears All that's sweet is yours Loveliness you bring I can't help but sing All that's sweet is yours When it seems I've broken down When these chords are frail You look with a smile And you say it's beautiful
