B7 Em7
[Verse 1]
Cmaj7/G B7add4 Em7/B
I see the crystal raindrops fall
Ebm7/Bb Cmaj7/G
And the beauty of it all
B7 Em7
Is when the sun comes shining through
[Verse 2]
Cmaj7/G B7add4 Em7/B
To make those rainbows in my mind
Ebm7/Bb Cmaj7/G
When I think of you sometime
B7 Em7
And I want to spend some time with you
[Chorus]
Cmaj7/G B7add4
Just the two of us
Em7/B Ebm7/Bb
We can make it if we try
Cmaj7/G B7 Em7
Just the two of us
[Chorus]
Cmaj7/G B7add4
Just the two of us
Em7/B Ebm7/Bb
Building castles in the sky
Cmaj7/G B7
Just the two of us
Em7
You and I
[Verse 3]
Cmaj7/G B7add4 Em7/B
We look for love, no time for tears
Ebm7/Bb Cmaj7/G
Wasted water's all that is
B7 Em7
And it doesn’t make no flowers grow
[Verse 4]
Cmaj7/G B7add4 Em7/B
Good things might come to those who wait
Ebm7/Bb Cmaj7/G
Not for those who wait too late
B7 Em7
We've got to go for all we know

Just the two of us

Building castles in the sky

You and I
[Verse 5]
Cmaj7/G B7add4 Em7/B
I hear the crystal raindrops fall
Ebm7/Bb Cmaj7/G
On the window down the hall
B7 Em7
And it becomes the morning dew
[Verse 6]
Cmaj7/G B7add4 Em7/B
And, darling, when the morning comes
Ebm7/Bb Cmaj7/G
And I see the morning sun
B7 Em7
I want to be the one with you
[Chorus]
Cmaj7/G B7add4
Just the two of us
Em7/B Ebm7/Bb
We can make it if we try
Cmaj7/G B7 Em7
Just the two of us
[Chorus]
Cmaj7/G B7add4
Just the two of us
Em7/B Ebm7/Bb
Building big castles way on high
Cmaj7/G B7
Just the two of us
Em7
You and I
