  			Intro 2x: C G C G F G 

Verso 1: 
C             G                         C 
It's up in the morning, it's on the downs 
                 G                     F 
And little white clouds like gambolling lambs 
         G                 C 
And I am breathless over you 
                     G              C 
And the red-breasted robin beats his wings 
              G               F 
His throat it trembles when he sings 
          G              C 
For he is helpless before you 
                     G 
And the happy hooded bluebells bow 
    C         G               F 
And bend their heads all a-down 
        G                   C 
Heavied by the early morning dew 
                  G                      C 
At the whispering stream, at the bubbling brook 
                G           F 
The fishes leap up to take a look 
             G              C 
For they are breathless over you 

Refrão: 
           G 
Still your hands 
               C 
And still your hearts 
               G                 F 
For still your face comes shining through 
            G             C 
And all the morning glows anew 
           G 
Still your mind 
           C 
Still your soul 
               G              F 
For still, the fire of love is true 
         G                 C  ( G   C   G ) 
And I am breathless without you 

The wind circles among the trees 
And it bangs about the new-made leaves 
For it is breathless without you 
And the fox chases the rabbit around 
And the rabbit hides beneath the ground 
For he is defenceless without you 
The sky of daytime dies away 
And all the earthly things they stop to play 
For we are all breathless without you 
I listen to my judgering bones 
The blood in my veins and the wind in my lungs 
And I am breathless without you 

Still your hands 
And still your hearts 
For still your face comes shining through 
And all the morning glows anew 
Still your soul 
Still your mind 
For still, the fire of love is tree 
         G                 F     C 
And I am breathless without you
