This song uses the Soulwriters prompt use only two chords in your song. I was also inspired by an article in the Atlantic Journal by Arthur C. Brooks on February 4, 2021 titled, “The Subtle Mindset Shift That Could Radically Change the Way You See the World.”

lyrics

You and I
Copyright 2021 by Mary C Crowell

Bbm
You and I, we are one.
Bbm
Stretching up to kiss the sun
F7 Bbm
Mmm-hmmmm. Loving you’s a tonic to me.

Bbm
We’ll share a fifth, our scales agree.
Bbm
We’ll share our roots like the aspen tree.
F7 Bbm
Mmm-hmmmm. Loving you’s a tonic to me.

Bbm
You and I, we parallel
Bbm
Our overtone’s ringing like a bell
F7 Bbm
Mmm-hmmmm. Loving you’s a tonic to me.

F7
I’m descending, pitches bending
Bbm
Will you catch me so?
F7
Not a leading question, pleading
Bbm F7
Just a note you know.
F7 Bbm
And now we’re back to ‘do.’ [doh]

Bbm
You and I, we are one.
Bbm
Stretching up to kiss the sun
F7 Bbm
Mmm-hmmmm. Loving you’s a tonic to me.
F7 Bbm
Loving you’s a tonic to me.
F7 Bbm
Loving you’s a tonic to me.
