Lyrics:

Intro (0:00)

Verse 1 (0:34)
Look at the stars, look how they shine for You, And everything you
Do, Yeah they were all yellow
I came along, I wrote a song for you, And all the things that you
Do, It was called Yellow
So then I took my turn, oh what a thing to have
Done, And it was all yellow

Chorus (1:30)
Your skin oh yeah your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
And you know, You know I love you so
You know I love you so

Verse 2 (2:14)
I swam across, I jumped across for you, Oh what a thing to
Do, Cause you were all yellow
I drew a line, I drew line for you, Oh what a thing to
Do and it was all yellow

Chorus (2:52)
Your skin oh yeah your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
And you know for you I'd bleed myself dry
For you I'd bleed myself dry

Outro (3:36)
Its true, look how they shine for you, Look how they shine for
You, Look how they shine for
Look how they shine for you, Look how they shine for
You, Look how they shine
Look at the stars, Look how they shine for
You, And all the things you do

Enjoy

This would be great if you animated you chord changes more, I'm still learning my chords, I'm getting there but need a little reminding!

[grappler555]

This tutorial was perfect, more people should do tutorials like this; strum pattern, entire chord progression throughout the whole song. Couldn't be better!
