F C A# C
I've longed to discover something as true as this is

A# C
So with a thousand sweet kisses I'll cover you
(If you're cold and your lonely)

A# C
With a thousand sweet kisses I'll cover you
(You've got one nickel only)

A# C
With a thousand sweet kisses I'll cover you
(When you're worn out and tired)

A# C
With a thousand sweet kisses I'll cover you
(When your heart has expired)


Eb C# F
Oh lover I'll cover you
Oh lover I'll cover you .
