Verse

D MajorD    A augmentedA      D MajorD         G+G
I don't get many things right the first time
  D MajorD      B minorBm     C majorC C majorC
In fact I am told that a lot
     A augmentedA        A/C#A/C#
Now I know all the wrong turns
    D MajorD         G+G           D MajorD    B minorBm    F# minorF#m A augmentedA
The stumbles and falls brought me here

B minorBm      G+G      B minorBm
And where was I before the day
        E MajorE          A augmentedA
That I first saw your lovely face
   F# minorF#m     G+G G+G
Now I see it every day
    D MajorD A augmentedA
And I know

    D MajorD A augmentedA
That I am
B minorBm F# minorF#m
I A minorAm
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA    D MajorD       A augmentedA
I am the luckiest

      D MajorD     A augmentedA
What if I'd been born
D MajorD         G+G
Fifty years before you
   D MajorD
In a house
      B minorBm          C majorC  C majorC
On the street where you live

      A augmentedA     A/C#A/C#
Maybe I'd be outside
      D MajorD           G+G
As you passed on your bike
      D MajorD     B minorBm   F# minorF#m   A augmentedA
Would I know

B minorBm     G+G       B minorBm
And in a wide see of eyes
     E MajorE     A augmentedA     F# minorF#m    G+G  Gsus2Gsus2  G+G
I see one pair I recognize

   D MajorD  A augmentedA
And I know

    D MajorD A augmentedA
That I am
B minorBm F# minorF#m
I A minorAm
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA    D MajorD       A augmentedA
I am the luckiest

E minorEm                  B minorBm
I love you more than I have
   B minorBm           D MajorD   G+G  D MajorD  A augmentedA
Ever found a way to say to you

    D MajorD
Next door
        A augmentedA
There's an old man
    D MajorD        G+G
Who lived to his nineties
       D MajorD        B minorBm       C majorC   C majorC
And one day passed away in his sleep

      A augmentedA       A/C#A/C#
And his wife she stayed
     D MajorD      G+G             D MajorD  B minorBm F# minorF#m A augmentedA
For a couple of days and passed away

B minorBm     G+G
I'm sorry I know that's a
B minorBm         E MajorE         A augmentedA
Strange way to tell you that I know
    F# minorF#m   G+G G+G
We belong
    D MajorD A augmentedA
That I know

    D MajorD A augmentedA
That I am
B minorBm F# minorF#m
I A minorAm
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA     B minorBm    F# minorF#m  G+G    D MajorD   A augmentedA   D MajorD
I am the luckiest
