verse 1 
C           F           C          F 
Words have left me as I listen to you 
      C          F                C 
Your eyes, they sparkle when you speak 
         F 
And I'm captivated 
C         F            C 
I could listen to you forever 
         F 
Never have to say a word 
     C                        F 
So tell me another story, I'm right here waiting 
C             F 
Listening to you 
 
Am            F 
I'm not usually so quiet 
Am               F 
I'm not shy or tired today 
Am                   F              Am       F 
I just don't want to miss a single word you say 
        C                  F                 C 
So as long as you want to stay I'll be here listening 
    F 
to everything you say 
     C                        F 
So tell me another story and when you're through 
C                F                   C 
Hold me close to you and let's grow old 
         F            C                 F 
ooo-ooo-ooo, ooo-ooo-ooo, ooo-ooo, ooo-ooo 

verse 2 
C         F     C                  F 
As the days go by, I'm still here listening to you 
       C      F           C 
The time sure passes rapidly 
      F 
But that's okay and 
C       F        C                            F 
As the wrinkles come and the aches and pains follow suit 
       C                          F                C           F 
Just tell me that you love me and I will tell you too, ooo-oo-ooo 

Am            F 
I have never been so quiet 
Am               F 
As the moments when you speak 
  Am                 F             Am       F 
I just don't want to miss a single word you say 
      C             F 
So today, tomorrow and always 
     C                F 
I'll be right by your side 
     C                        F 
So tell me another story and when you're through 
C                 F 
Hold me close to you and let's grow... 

Bridge 
Am               G                    F 
old together, I want to grow old with you 
           Am              G                 F 
Let's grow old together my dear, just me and you 
        C                   F 
There's no one I'd rather listen to 
C                     F 
Right through to the end 

     C                        F 
So tell me another story and when you're through 
C                F 
Hug me close to you and let's grow 
C                        F 
Tell me another story, I'm right here 
C               F 
Hug me close my dear 
                C 
And let's grow old
