Sweet Thing Chords by Van Morrison

[Start]

[Intro]
F#m A B7 E F#m A E
■   ■ ■  ■ ■   ■ ■


[Verse]
F#m                            
And I will stroll the merry way
A                        
And jump the hedges first
E            F#m            
■ And I will drink the clear
                   A                F#m7
Clean water for to quench my thirst ■   
E     F#m                         
■ And I shall watch the ferryboats
    A           B    E
And they'll get high ■
F#m             
On a bluer ocean
A                      E
Against tomorrow's sky ■
F#m                      A        
And I will never grow so old again
E     F#m                 
■ And I will walk and talk
   A                        
In gardens all wet with rain


[Chorus]
E    A             E     A E      
■ Oh ■ sweet thing sweet ■ ■ thing
      A                    E
My my my my my sweet thing ■


[Verse]
      F#m                   
And I shall drive my chariot
A                         E
Down your streets and cry ■
F#m             A       
Hey it's me I'm dynamite
                      E
And I don't know why' ■
    F#m                       
And you shall take me strongly
A                  E
In your arms again ■
F#m                A       
■   And I will not remember
                     A   
That I even felt the pain
E F#m                   
■ We shall walk and talk
           A                           E
In gardens all misty and wet with rain ■
F#m7             A          
And I will never never never
                  E
Grow so old again ■
A              E A          
Oh sweet thing ■ sweet thing
   E                         A
My ■ my my my my sweet thing ■
E F#m                 A      
■ And I will raise my hand up
               A       
Into the night time sky
E   F#m           A    
And ■   count the stars
               B       A   E
That's shining in your eye ■
F#m                    A            
Just to dig it all an' not to wonder
                 E
That's just fine ■


[Chorus]
F#m                  
And I'll be satisfied
A                          E    
Not to read in between the lines
F#m                     
And I will walk and talk
A                           
In gardens all wet with rain
E            F#m             A   
■ And I will never ever ever ever
            E    
Grow so old again


[Outro]
A  E A       E A       E       A      
Oh ■ ■ sweet ■ ■ thing ■ sweet ■ thing
E         A                          E
Sugarbaby ■ with your champagne eyes ■
                   A    
And your saintlike smile


[End]
