this is quite a beautiful song no matter how you play it. Great at weddings and aniversaries

Key of Bb majorBb (Capo 6th fret if you wish)

Verse 1
Bb majorBb              FF
These times are troubled and these times are good
       Eb MajorEb
And they're always gonna be, they rise and they fall
Bb majorBb         FF
We take 'em all the way that we should
 Eb MajorEb
Together you and me forsaking them all
G minorGm          FF
Deep in the night and by the light of day
  Eb MajorEb
It always looks the same, true love always does
Bb majorBb             FF
And here by your side, or a million miles away
     Eb MajorEb
Nothin's ever gonna change the way that I feel,
                 Bb majorBb
The way it is, is the way that it was

Chorus
   Bb majorBb    FF         C minorCm      Eb MajorEb       Bb majorBb
When I said I do, I meant that I will 'til the end of all time
        FF        AbAb
Be faithful and true, devoted to you
           Eb MajorEb         Bb majorBb FF Eb MajorEb
That's what I had in mind when I said "I do"


Verse 2

   Bb majorBb                   FF
Well this old world keeps changin', and the world stays the same
  Eb MajorEb
For all who came before, and it goes hand and hand
Bb majorBb           FF
Only you and I can undo all that we became
   Eb MajorEb
That makes us so much more, than a woman and a man
G minorGm            FF
And after everything that comes and goes around
  Eb MajorEb
Has only passed us by, here alone in our dreams
 Bb majorBb               FF
I know there's a lonely heart in every lost and found
    Eb MajorEb
But forever you and I will be the ones
              Bb majorBb
Who found out what forever means

Repeat Chorus
