Tuning:E A D G B E
Key:G
Capo:no capo

[Intro]
G  Am  D  G
 
[Verse 1]
                G                        Em
The woman in my dreams, too beautiful to touch
                  Am                   D
And I'm afraid to speak, I may say too much
                   G                       Em
Then I'll begin to plead and I'll begin to pray
                  Am      D           G
And so the fool I am and she'll just run away
 
[Chorus]
  D          G                            Am
I turn to my guitar and touch her silver strings
               D7                       G
Oh, the more I hurt, the prettier she sings
G                                     Am
I live on the Earth and love is on a star
                D7                     G
If I can't have love, I'll turn to my guitar
 
[Interlude]
Am7 D  G  G
 
[Verse 2]
G                                            Em
The lovers from my past have vanished in the wind
                    Am                      D
But they come to my room to see my now and then
                     G                             Em
They kiss me on the cheek and tell me please don't cry
                      Am                  D7      G   D
They say they love me still and then they say goodbye
 
[Chorus]
  D          G                            Am
I turn to my guitar and touch her silver strings
               D7                       G
Oh, the more I hurt, the prettier she sings
                                     Am
I live on the Earth and love is on a star
                D                     G
If I can't have love, I'll turn to my guitar
 
[Interlude]
Am7 D  G   E
 
[Verse 3]
E                    A                         F#m
You hold me to the fire and you read me like a book
                 Bm                     E7
I'm older than I act and younger than I look
                  A                         F#m
And knowing me so well, you know it's no surprise
                Bm        E            A    E
To see it isn't love but pity in your eyes
 
[Chorus]
  E          A                           Bm
I turn to my guitar and touch her silver strings
               E7                       A
Oh, the more I hurt, the prettier she sings
                                     Bm
I live on the Earth and love is on a star
                E7                     A
If I can't have love, I'll turn to my guitar
                Bm     E                      A
If I can't have lo-----ve, I'll turn to my guitar
