Ev'rything went wrong,     and the whole day long

For the longest while,       I'd forgot to smile,

Then  I  met you.   
 Em          C7              B7   
Now that my blue days have passed,

Now that I've found you at last.

Not for just an hour, not for just a day,

Not for just a year, but always.

Dreams will all come true       growing old with you,

And time will fly,   
C               Gdim  G7   
Caring each day more      than the day before,   
      Dm7   G7   C     C7   
As spring rolls by.

                         Em      Gdim   
Then will my love linger on.
