verse 1 
C            F 
If I gave an inch 
    C               F 
And asked you for a mile 
          C                 F 
Would you cross that sea to carry me 
   G 
Forever and a while 


verse 2 
F             C 
If I close my eyes 
F               C 
If I close them tight 
     F 
Will you still mean those things I feel 
      G 
That make my darkness bright 

 
          C          F        C         G 
Would you marry me before you kiss me? 
          C             F       G 
Would you wait for me before I'm gone? 
          C          F      C                     G 
Would you celebrate all the visions I should have won 
            F                  G 
And start a brand new day with me 
                      C      G F    C   G F 
Before the old day is done 


verse 3 
C             F 
If we lost it all 
   C            F 
Or if we had no home 
        C                       F 
Oh, the world would flee if you and me 
  G 
Together on the road 


verse 4 
    F              C 
And if we lost our way 
    F              C 
And if life slowly stands 
        F              
Oh, the world would see if you and me 
        G 
Are the dancers holding hands 

 
          C          F        C         G 
Would you marry me before you kiss me? 
          C             F       G 
Would you wait for me before I'm gone? 
          C          F      C                     G 
Would you celebrate all the visions I should have won 
            F                  G 
And start a brand new day with me 
                      C      G F 
Before the old day is done 
   C      G F     C 
Is done
