The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
With someone like you a pal good and true
I'd like to leave it all behind and go and find
A place that's known to God alone just a spot we could call our own
We'll find perfect peace where joys never cease
Somewhere beneath the stary skies
We'll build a sweet little nest somewhere out in the west
And let the rest of the world go by
[ guitar - piano ]
With someone like you...
And let the rest of the world go by
