[Intro]
G Em G D
[Verse 1]
G
I really love you for your mind,
Em
and I know that we're two of a kind.
G
I don't go straight for that physical bit,
D
it always turns out a one-way trip.
Em
But won't you come up to my room,
A
so we can discuss, say, Egyptian tombs,
D
or maybe just do a few little steps
D D7
from one of our favourite Bolshoi ballets.
[Chorus]
D7 G D
Oh, give me Shakespeare instead of long French kisses,
D G C D
give me Mozart instead of holding me tight,
D G F D
give me Tolstoy instead of girl-talk drivel,
G D
like 'Baby, it's alright'.
D G D
Give me Shakespeare instead of moonlight flirting,
D G C D
give me Schubert instead of Hollywood tears,
D G F D
give me Bolshoi instead of all-night hustle,
D C D G
give me Henry Moore, Salvador Dali, and an evening at the opera !
D G D
[Verse 2]
G
I really love you as you are,
Em
and without make-up I think that you'll go far,
G
your clothes hide your figure beautifully,
D
it makes a lovely change, I mean that sincerely.
Em
I've got so much respect for you,
A
and I know that you've got respect for me, too,
D
so let's go and relax on my bed,
D D7
so we can confirm all that we've said.
[Chorus]

Writing and painting, poetry and neurology,

those are just some of my favourite things.

A D
those are just some of my favourite people.
