[C]
[Am] [G] Down by the boathouse at Shaker Lake [C]
[G] When there was nothing but love to make
They were two young lovers [C] wishing on the stars [Bb] above
Where
[C] they carved their initials in an old birch tree
[Bb] With a heart and an arrow and a 63
[F] You had to be blind not to [C] see
It was a [Bb] perfect love
[G] It was a perfect [Bb] love
Oh yeah
[F] Well they worked one summer together at the [Bb] 64 World's [C] Fair
[Bb] [F] They met Robert Kennedy there
[Bb] [F] Well it was right before [Bb] the fall
[C] [Bb] And they saved up a [F] little bit of money for his career
[C] [F] And they talked about the future underneath the giant [C] sphere
[Bb] And all around them the [F] little voices were singing
It's a small world [Bb] after all
Yes it is, [C] small world [Bb] after all
[C] And it was [Bb] perfect love
[C] It was a perfect [Bb] love
Under the moon and the stars and gold
[C] It's a perfect love
Now [Dm] they were dizzy from dancing on Rockaway Beach
[C] They came to Rockaway
[Dm] And everything [C] they dreamed of was [Dm] still [Bb] within reach
Dreaming, dreaming as the years [Bb] rolled by
Like they always do
[C] [Bb] But they had their share of hard [C] times too
[Bb] But whatever they were, [C] they never let it get [Gm] them down
[C] [F] They just go walking down the country [C] lane
[Bb] See the leaves are changing in the misty rain
[Dm] And only [Gm] one thing [F] remains [C] the same
[F] Oh [Bb] yeah
[C]
Just the [Bb] perfect love
Under the stars and gold
[C] They are the perfect love
The perfect [Bb] love
