Verse 1:
A augmentedA D MajorD        A augmentedA        D MajorD
I kissed you under stars and stripes
      B minorBm
Soaked in golden lantern light
E MajorE
Right as the sun rose
A augmentedA           D MajorD
As you held me in your arms
A augmentedA            D MajorD
I felt that you were the one
 B minorBm
I wish I'd always known
     E MajorE
I think a new love has found home

Chorus:
  A augmentedA      E MajorE
I died, Lord I swear that I died
   G+G          D MajorD
When first I, I laid eyes on you
  A augmentedA         E MajorE
And when I try to make sense of my life
    G+G           D MajorD
It just doesn't seem fitting without you
   A augmentedA          E MajorE
Well, I'm no child, but I sure ain't no man
     G+G            D MajorD
I've got doubts and a poor understanding
 A augmentedA             E MajorE
I can't give you much except all of my love
   G+G         D MajorD
And a promise I'll never abandon


Verse 2:
A augmentedA     D MajorD     A augmentedA       D MajorD
You took a picture of me the morning after
  B minorBm               E MajorE
To capture the first breath of our old souls' love
A augmentedA            D MajorD
As your blue eyes shone brightly
      A augmentedA         D MajorD
You called me red, white, and beauty
       B minorBm
You said I'd never grow old
     E MajorE
And If I did you'd come along
A augmentedA            D MajorD
I know I still make you nervous
     A augmentedA      D MajorD
So just smoke all my cigarettes
  B minorBm
And remember the first time
   E MajorE
You kissed me that dawn

Chorus:
  A augmentedA      E MajorE
I died, Lord I swear that I died
   G+G          D MajorD
When first I, I laid eyes on you
  A augmentedA         E MajorE
And when I try to make sense of my life
    G+G           D MajorD
It just doesn't seem fitting without you
   A augmentedA          E MajorE
Well, I'm not a child, but I'm hardly a man
     G+G            D MajorD
I've got doubts and a poor understanding
 A augmentedA             E MajorE
I can't give you much except all of my love

And a promise I'll never abandon
