               C 
The leaves are fallin down 
                    F 
The air is cool and clear 
       C 
It's a season of change 
                                  G 
And the night we've waited for is here 
          C 
And we've exchanged the rings 
                F 
And we've taken the vows 
               C 
The ceremony's over baby 
G                    C 
And the honeymoon is starting now 


            F 
This is the first dance 
                    C 
But it won't be the last 
         F 
Timeless moments like this 
                                       C 
They won't ever be a thing of the past 
              F 
We'll spark a candle tonight 
                    C       G/B   Am  G 
An eternal flame of romance 
         F            Em   Dm 
When the honeymoon is over baby 
           G                C 
I'll still move you like the first dance 

          C 
I've been scared as hell 
                               F 
Cause I've heard how the story goes 
                        C 
You get married and you settle down 
                              G 
And the passion withers like a rose 
        C 
But I refuse to lose 
                   F 
This thing we have together 
                       C 
And I'll keep the fire burning baby 
G                    C 
Burning both ends of forever 

            F 
This is the first dance 
                    C 
But it won't be the last 
         F 
Timeless moments like this

We'll spark a candle tonight 
                    C       G/B  Am  G 
An eternal flame of romance 
         F            Em   Dm 
When the honeymoon is over baby 
           G                 C 
I'll still move you like the first dance 

      Am             Dm 
I see heaven in your eyes 
         G                 C 
And feel god movin in this room 
      Am                Dm 
Ain't love the greatest gift of all 
         G 
Ain't it amazing what desire can do 

            F
