[Intro]
G G#dim Am G#dim
Am A7/G D/F# G
 
[Verse 1]
G          G#dim    Am
I know you like her
                 G#dim
Well, I like her too
                 Am
I know she likes you
     A7/G          D/F#              G
It's not as if I'm being sent off to war
          C                    D7
There are worse things in this world
 
[Refrain]
Gm                       C                Am
There's still room in my wooden horse for two
               D7/F#
I was Jonathan to your David
Gm
You're still king
 
[Verse 2]
G                  G#dim    Am
Well, I'd thought about her
                G#dim               Am
I dreamed she'd come, I'd make my escape
  A7/G                     D/F#          G
I thought she liked me but somehow I was wrong
       C                      D7
I know you don't want it this way
 
[Chorus]
          G
But it's okay
     Bm7b5             E
It's not like we'll be parted
     E7                        F
It's not like we'll never know love
           C             Dm
And she'll smile for you
                 C    F
She'll hold your hand
             Am                    D7
You'll be in love there's no other way
    Gm                 C
And I will make it someday

There are worse things in this world

You're still king
 
[Verse 4]
G          G#dim     Am
Visions of love recollected
G#dim             Am
Have we ever been true?
  A7/G                   D/F#            G
I know that I have, it's time for you to go
         C                      D7
It's all in the stones that you throw

I want you to know
     Bm7b5             E
It's not like we'll be parted

She'll hold your hand
             Am                    D7
You'll be in love there's no other way
F      C       Dm            C
People say that "We'll never change"
F            Am              D7
"We'll never change".  But I have
F       C         Dm     C
You and her in the local newspaper
F           Am                    D7
You will be married and you'll be gone
Gm                    C
Married and you'll be gone
