[Verse]
G         Am       D       Am   
Imagine a month of Sundays,     
   G        Am       D   Am
   each one a cloudy day.
G           Am         D        
Imagine the moment the sun came 
          D9 D9
shining through.
D9                     D9       G
Imagine that ray of sunshine as 
 Am  G  Am
you

G             Am      D     Am 
Remember your darkest hour,    
       G          Am      D    Am
  with dawn still far away.
G            Am           D     
Remember the way that you longed
               D9    D9
 for morning's light,
    D9                     D9     
And think of yourself as a candle 
       G     Am  G  Am
in the night.

G            Am                D 
Make believe this is the first 
  Am      G              Am      
day;       everything all 
D   Am
brand-new.
G            Am       D         
Make believe that the sun is 
            D9    D9
your own lucky star,
Continues after the ad
         D9             D9        
And then understand the kind of 
       G    Am    G  Am
gift you are,

[Chorus]
             C             Am 
The gift you are, like the very 
        D         G      G
first breath of spring.
             C            Am       
The gift you are, all the joy that 
D        G     G
love can bring.
             C    Am         D   
The gift you are, all of our 
        Bm7   Em
dreams come true.
             C   G    Am         
The gift you are,                
     D       G     Am   G
 the gift of you.

[Bridge]
Am          D          G
You are the promise of all the ages;
Am          D        G
You are the prodigal son.
Bm7                   C           
You are the vision of prophets and
 Am
 sages;
Am          D    G     G
You are the only one.

[Verse]
G        Am         D      Am   
Dream of a bright tomorrow,     
  G                         Am 
  know that your dream will come 
    D    Am  G
true.
      Am          D           
Carry your dream in a sparkling 
      D9   D9
crystal jar;
              D9       D9      G 
Then you will know the kind of 
       C
gift you are.

[Chorus]
             C             Am 
The gift you are, like the very 
        D         G      G
first breath of spring.
             C            Am       
The gift you are, All the joy that 
D        G      G
love can bring.
             C    Am         D   
The gift you are, all of our 
   Bm7        Em
dreams come true.
             C   G    Am       D
The gift you are,          The 
       G
gift of you.
