Bb Bb/A GmSlow down,
F Eb Fwe've got time left to be lazy
Bb Bb/A Gm F Eb FAll the kids have bloomed from babies into flowers in our eyes.
Bb Bb/A Gm F Eb FWe've got fifty good years left to spend out in the garden
Eb DmI don't care to beg your pardon,
Cm FWe should live
Bb Bb/A Gm F Eb F Bb Bb/A Bbuntil we die.
Bb Bb/A Gm Dm Eb FWe were barely eighteen when we'd crossed collective hearts.
Eb Dm Cm FIt was cold, but it got warm when you'd barely crossed my eye.
Bb Bb/A Gmand then you turned, put out your hand,
F Eb Fand you asked me to dance.
Eb Dm Cm F
I knew nothing of romance, but it was love at second sight.
Eb F Bb Bb/A Gm FI swear when I grow up, I won't just buy you a rose.
Eb F Bb Bb/A Gm FI will buy the flower shop, and you will never be lonely.
Eb FEven if the sun stops waking up over the fields
Bb Bb/A GmI will not leave, I will not leave 'till it's our time.
Eb F Bb Bb/A Gm F Eb F Bb Bb/A BbSo just take my hand, you know that I will never leave your side.

Bb Bb/A Gm Dm Eb FIt was the winter of '86, and all the fields had frozen over.
Eb Dm Cm FSo we moved to Arizona to save our only son
Bb Bb/A Gm Fand now he's turning to a man,
Eb Falthough he thinks just like his mother,
Eb Dm Cm F
he believes we're all just lovers he sees hope in everyone.
Bb Bb/A GmAnd even though she moved away,
F Eb Fwe always get calls from our daughter.
Eb DmShe has eyes just like her father's
Cm Fthey are blue when skies are grey
Bb Bb/A Gm FAnd just like him, she never stops,
Eb FNever takes the day for granted,
Eb Dmworks for everything that's handed to her,
Cm FNever once complains.
Eb F Bb Bb/A Gm FYou think that I nearly lost you
Eb F Bb Bb/A Gm FWhen the doctors tried to take you away.
Eb F Bb Bb/A Gm FBut like the night you took my hand beside the fire
Eb Fthirty years ago
Bbto this day
Eb FYou swore you'd be here 'til we decide that it's our time
Bb Bb/A GmWell it's not time, you've never quit in all your life.
Eb F Bb Bb/A GmSo just take my hand, you know that I'll never leave your side.
Eb F Bb Bb/A Gm F Eb F Bb Bb/A BbYou're the love of my life, you know that I'll never leave your side.

Bb Bb/A Gm FYou come home from work
Eb Fand you kiss me on the eye
Eb Dm Cm FYou curse the dog you say that I should never feed them what is ours
Bb Bb/A Gm Fand so we move all to the garden
Eb Flook at everything we've owned
Eb Dmnow the kids are coming home
Cm Dm Eb Fso I set the table
BbYou can make the fire.
