D A D G
I don't get many things right the first time,
D Bm C D - C
In fact I am told that a lot.
A A7
Now I know all the wrong turns,
D G D Bm - F#m - A
And stumbles and falls brought me here.
Bm G Bm
And where was I before the day,
E A
That I first saw your lovely face,
F#m G A - G
Now I see it every day,
D A A7
And I know,
D A
That I am,
Bm F#m
I am,
G Asus A
I am,
D A A7
The luckiest.
What if I'd been born fifty years before you,
In a house on the street where you live.
Maybe I'd be outside as you passed on your bike,
Would I know?
And in a white sea of eyes,
I see one pair that I recognise,
And I know.
That I am,
I am,
I am the luckiest.
Em
I love you more than I have,
Bm D G D - A - A7
Ever found a way to say to you.
Next door there's an old man,
Who lived to his nineties and one day,
Passed away in his sleep.
And his wife, she stayed for a couple of days,
And passed away.
I'm sorry, I know that's a strange way to tell you,
That I know we belong,
And I know.
That I am,
I am,
Bm F#m - G - Asus - A - D
I am the luckiest.
