[A]
[F#m] [D] [A]
I've had my share of [Bm] life's ups and downs,
but [Am] fate's been kind.
[E] The [A] downs have been few.
[F#m] I guess you could say [D] [E] that [Bm] [A] I've been lucky.
[E] [F#m] I guess you [F] could say [A] [B] that it's [E]
all up to you.
[A] [E] If [A] anyone should ever write [F#m] my life story,
I'd [C#m] be [D] happy.
Or whatever [E] fate [A] might be.

[F#m]
[Bm] cause you're the best thing that ever [E] happened [C#m] to me.

[F#] just [C#m] loving you.
