Clair - Gilbert O'Sullivan
[Em] [Am7] [D] [D7]
[Em7] Clair, the [Am] moment I met you I [D] sw[D7]ear,
I [B] felt as if something [Em] somewhere [Em7]
Had [Am] happened to me, wich [F#] I couldn´t [D] see
And [Em7] then the m[Am]oment I met you a[D]gain[D7],
I [B] knew in my heart that [Em] we were friend[Em7]s
It [Am] had to be so, it [ F#] couldn´t be [D7] no
But [G] try as [E7] hard as I might do I [Am] don´t know
why,
[D7] You get to me in a way I [Gmaj7] can´t describe.
[Cmaj7] Words mean so little when you [A7] look up and smile I don´t
care [Cmaj7] what people say.
To me you´re [A7] more than a child oh [Am7] Clair, [D7] Clair.
Clair if ever a moment so rare
was captured for all to compare
That moment is you, in all that you do. But why
In spite of our age diff´rence do I cry
- each time I leave you I feel I could die,
Nothing means more to me than hearing you say:
"I´m going to marry you, will you marry me, Uncle Ray?"
Oh Clair, Clair.
[Em] Clair, I´ve [Am7] told you before, don´t you [D7]dare
Get [G] back into [Em] bed, can´t you [Am7] see that it´s
[D7] late,
No you [G] can´t have a [Em] drink, Oh al[Am7]right then but
[D7] wait just a [G]bit
While [E] I in an [E7] effort to [Am] baby sit
[D7] capture my breath when there is [Gmaj7] left of it.
[Cmaj7] You can be murder at this [A7] hour of the day
But in the [Cmaj7] morning, this sorrow will seem a [A7] lifetime
away.
Oh [Am7] Clair, [D7] Clair
[Cmaj7] [G] [Am7 D7] Oh [Gmaj7] Clair
