  Stevie's choice for his own best lyrics:

  

  

                                    "As"

                              (Stevie Wonder)

  

  Intro:

  

  	Bmaj7    B7      Emaj7       [2X]

  	      Do do-do-do do  do

  

  Verse 1:

  

  	   Bmaj7               B7                Emaj7

  	As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving

  	       Bmaj7                           Amaj7

  	And the rosebuds know to bloom in early May

  	       Bmaj7                   B7

  	Just as hate knows love's the cure

  	       Emaj7

  	You can rest your mind assure

  	     G#m            A#m D#7 G#m7 G#m6 C#m7 F#7

  	That I'll be loving you always

  

  Verse 2:

  

  	As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow

  	But in passing will grow older every day

  	Just as all is born is new

  	Do know what I say is true

  	     G#m            A#m D#7 (G#m)

  	That I'll be loving you  always

  

  Chorus 1:

  

  	G#m          D#7/A#              B              C#

  	  (Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky)

  	Always

  	G#m         D#7/A#         B              C#

  	  (Until the ocean covers every mountain high)

  	Always

  	G#m         D#7/A#              B              C#

  	  (Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea)

  	G#m         D#7/A#             B           [1:      F9; to bridge]

  	Always                                     [others: C#]

  	  (Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream)

  

  Bridge:

  

  	Emaj7                                      Bmaj7

  	      Did you know that true love asks for nothing

  	Emaj7                             Dmaj9

  	      Her acceptance is the way we came

  	Emaj7                                 Bmaj7

  	      Did you know that life has given love a guarantee

  	   C#m7                            A#m7/D# D#7 C#m9 F#13

  	To last through forever and another day            (just)

  

  Verse 3:

  

  	Just as time knew to move on since the beginning

  	And the seasons know exactly when to change

  	Just as kindness knows no shame

  	Know through all your joy and pain

  	That I'll be loving you always

  

  Verse 4:

  

  	As today I know I'm living but tomorrow

  	Could make me that past but that I mustn't fear

  	For I'll know deep in my mind

  	The love of me I've left behind

  	'Cause I'll be loving you always

  

  Chorus 2 [chorus chord progression continues to fade]:

  

  	Until the day is night and night becomes the day

  	Until the trees and sea just up and fly away

  	Until the day that eight times eight times eight is four

  	Until the day that is the day that are no more

  

  Chorus 3:

  

  	Until the day the earth starts turning right to left

  	Until the earth just for the sun denies itself

  	Until dear Mother Nature says her work is through

  	Until the day that you are me and I am you

  

  [repeat first two lines of chorus 1]

  

  [piano solo]

  

  Interlude:

  

  	We all know sometimes life's hate and troubles

  	Can make you wish you were born in another time and space

  	But you can bet your life times that and twice its double

  	That God knew exactly where He wanted you to be placed

  	So make sure when you say you're in it but not of it

  	You're not helping to make this Earth a place sometimes called Hell

  	Change your words into truths and then change that truth into love

  	And maybe our children's grandchildren

  	And their great-great-grandchildren will tell

  

  	I'll be loving you...

  

  [repeat choruses 1, 2, 3]

  

  	Always...

  

  [repeat choruses 1, 2, 3]

  

  [repeat choruses 1, 2, 3; fade]
