All I Want Is You Chords

   
Hi, this is my first online tab, so I've ran into a bit of a problem telling 
you guys how to strum in the right rhythm. For those of you who can figure it 
out by listening (thumbs-up), for the rest of you I'll try to explain it.
he repeat this constant beat 4 times within one stroke.
----------3---x--      Each hit is 1/16, and is a constant up/down rhythm in
----------3---x--      your right hand. Up-strums being from the high e and
---4------4---x--      upwards, and down-strums being from the low E and 
---5------5---x--      downwards. Up-strums: <    Down-strums: >
---5------5---x--      There's no doubt that you'll get the best effect if
---3------3---x--      you can just keep a constant up/down thing going in 
   >      >   <        your right hand, and the just avoid strumming on the
first up-strum, so that the first down-strum seems longer. All in all try to 
get that country-swing rhythm.

If I was a flower growing wild and free
All I'd want is you to be my sweet honey bee.
And if I was a tree growing tall and green
All I'd want is you to shade me and be my leaves

All I want is you, will you be my bride
Take me by the hand and stand by my side
All I want is you, will you stay with me?
Hold me in your arms and sway me like the sea.

If you were a river in the mountains tall,
The rumble of your water would be my call.
If you were the winter, I know I'd be the snow
Just as long as you were with me, when the cold winds blow.

All I want is you, will you be my bride
Take me by the hand and stand by my side
All I want is you, will you stay with me?
Hold me in your arms and sway me like the sea.

If you were a wink, I'd be a nod
If you were a seed, well I'd be a pod.
If you were the floor, I'd wanna be the rug
And if you were a kiss, I know I'd be a hug

All I want is you, will you be my bride
Take me by the hand and stand by my side
All I want is you, will you stay with me?
Hold me in your arms and sway me like the sea.

- here's a minor deviation

G                     C          G
If you were the wood, I'd be the fire.
G                     F#(53)     G       
If you were the love, I'd be the desire.
G                     C           G
If you were a castle, I'd be your moat,
G(strum once and let ring)F#(5#)       G
And if you were an ocean, I'd learn to float.

All I want is you, will you be my bride
Take me by the hand and stand by my side
All I want is you, will you stay with me?
Hold me in your arms and sway me like the sea.
