verse 1 
   G               Em            Am         D7 
Sometimes in the morning, when shadows are deep, 
 G            Em               Am           D7 
 I lie here beside you, just watching you sleep, 
 G                Em           Am          D7 
And sometimes I whisper, what I`m thinking of, 
G         Em    Am   D7   G    
My cup runneth over with love  

verse 2 
    G              Em           Am         D7 
Sometimes in the evening, when you do not see, 
G             Em          Am        D7 
I study the small things,you do constantly, 
G            Em          Am          D7 
I memorize moments, that I`m fondest of, 
G        Em     Am   D7   G    
My cup runneth over with love  

verse 3 
 Ab         Fm         Bbm         D#7 
 In only a moment, we both will be old, 
 Ab              Fm        Bbm           D#7 
 We won`t even notice the world turning cold. 
 Ab      Fm                      Bbm     D#7 
 And so, in this moment, with sunlight above, 
 Ab        Fm         D#7  Ab 
 My cup runneth over with love
