intro C , Am , F , G
C Am
by the time i was your age i’d give anything to fall in love truly
F
was all i could think , that’s when i met your mother the girl of my dreams ,
G
the most beautiful woman that i’d ever seen .
C
she said boy can i tell you a wonderful thing?
Am
“i can’t help but notice you staring at me ,
F
i know i shouldn’t say this , but i really believe ,
G
i can tell by your eyes that you’re in love with me . ”
chorus :
F G Am Am9 F G
now son , i’m only telling you this because life can do terrible things .
the rest is the same progression .
now most of the time we’d have too much to drink
and we’d laugh at the stars and share everything .
too young to notice and too dumb to care ,
love was a story that couldn’t compare .
i said girl can i tell you a wonderful thing?
“i made you a present with paper and string ,
open with care now , i’m asking you please ,
you know that i love you ,
will you marry me?”
now son i’m only telling you this because life can do
terrible things
you’ll learn one day , and i hope and i pray that god
shows you differently .
she said boy can i tell you a terrible thing?
“it seems that i’m sick and i’ve only got weeks .
please dont be sad now , i really believe ,
you were the greatest thing that ever happened to me . ”
slow , so slow , i fell to the ground on my knees .
so don’t fall in love there’s just too much to lose
if you’re given the choice , i’m begging you choose to
walk away , walk away ,
don’t let it get you , i can’t bare to see the same
happen to you .
now son , i’m only telling you this , because life can do
terrible things .
