Verse 1:

D
I once knew a man
Em          A            F
Been everywhere in the world
                Em
Gave me a tiny ivory ball
F#m             B       G
Said it would bring me good
Cm                  G     Bm
Never believed it would until
              C        Bbsus2 [x13311]
I have been loving you

Verse 2:

Dear old man
He'd seen most everything
Gave me a piece of good advice
Said it would do me well
I couldn't really tell until
I have been loving you

Bridge:

Asus2 [x02200]
Now it seems
Things are not so strange
I can see more clearly
                        G
Suddenly I've found my way
                          F#m
I know the old man would laugh
                     B      G   /F#
He spoke of love's sweeter days
Em          A        F
And in his eloquent way
Bbm                         F
I think he was speaking of you
Am
You are so lovely
                           D
You didn't have to say a thing

Verse 3:

But I remember that old man
Telling me he'd seen the light
Gave me a small brown leather book
Insisted that he was right
Cm                 G
I only heard him slightly
Bm         Cm         G
   'Til I heard you whisper
C           Bm     Cm     G    Bm  Bbsus2
   Took you up all in my arms

Coda:

D            Dsus4   D   Dsus4
Dear old man
D            Dsus4   D   Dsus4
Wise old man
D            Dsus4   D   Dsus4
Fine old man, now
