[A] [G] [C#] [Dm] [C#]
[D] If I [C#] could save [Dm] time in a bottle
[G] The [E] first thing that [A] I'd like to [G] do
[A]
[Gm] Is [D] to save [Dm] every day [E] till eternity passes [Dm] away
Just [Gm] to spend them [A] with [G] you [D]
[A] [Dm] If I could make days last forever
[G] [A#] If words could [A] make wishes come [Bm] true [A]
[Gm] I'd [D] save [F] every day [Gm] like a treasure
And then, [Dm] again, [Gm] I would spend them [A] with [G] [A] you
[D] But there never [F#m] seems to be enough [Bm] time To do the things [D] you want to do
[G] Once you find [D] them I've [Em]
[A] [D] looked [F#m] around enough to [Bm] know
You're the one [D] I want to go [G] through time with
[D] [Em] If

[D] I [C#] had a box [F] just for wishes [B]
[E] And dreams that had [A] never [Gm]
[A] come [G] true
[Dm] [C#]
[D] The box [F] would be empty [Gm] except for the memory [Dm] Of how [Gm] they were answered [F#m] by [G] you
[A] But [D] there never [F#m] seems to be enough [Bm] time To do the [D] things you want to do
[G] Once you find [D] them
[Em] [A]
