G D G C
i don’t get many things right the first time
G Em F
in fact , i Am told that a lot
D
now i know all the wrong turns ,
G C G Em Bm D
the stumbles and falls brought me here

Em C Em
and where was i before the day
A D
that i first saw your lovely face
Bm C
now i see it every day

G D
and i know

G D
that i – – – Am
Em Bm
i – – – Am
C G – D G D
i – – – Am the luckiest

G D
what if i’d been born
G C
fifty years before you
G
in a house
Em F
on the street where you live

D
maybe i’d be outside
G C
as you passed on your bike
G Em Bm D

there’s an old man
G C
who lived to his nineties
G Em F
and one day , passed away in his sleep

D
and his wife , she stayed
G C G Em Bm C
for a couple of days and passed away
