[Ab]
By the time I was your age, you'd [Eb] give anything
[Bbm] To fall in love truly was all I could think
[Db] That's when I met your mother, the girl of my dreams
[Ab] The most beautiful woman that I'd ever seen
[Db] She said, boy can I tell you a wonderful thing
[Bbm] I can't help but notice you staring [Eb] at me
I [Gb] know I shouldn't say this but I really believe
I [Db] can tell [Ab] by your eyes that you're [Bb] in love with me
[Db] Now son, [Ab] I'm [A] only telling [Bbm] you this [Gb] because
Life can [Ab] do terrible [Db] things
[Bbm]
[Db]
Now most of the time we'd have too much to drink
[Bbm] And we'd laugh at the stars and we'd share everything
[Db] Too young to notice and too dumb to care
[Ab] Love was a story that [Bb] couldn't compare
[Db]
I said, girl can I tell you a wonderful thing
[Bbm] I made you a present with paper and string
[Db] Open with care, now I'm asking you please
You know [Ab] that I love you, will you marry me?
[Db]
Now son, [Ab] I'm [A] only telling [Bbm] you this [Gb] because
Life can [Ab] do terrible [Bb] things
[Gb] You'll learn [Ab] one day, [A] I hope [Bbm] and I'll pray
[Gb] That God shows [Ab] you differently
[Db] She said, boy can I tell you a terrible thing
[Bbm] It seems that I'm sick and I've only got weeks
[Gb] Please don't be sad [Db] now, I really believe
[Ab] You were the greatest thing that ever happened to me
