[Verse 1]
      F                Am         Em    F
Every time is like the first time tenderly 
G                  Am        G
Loving you is like breathing spring
Em                 F                G       Am
Seasons change but your heart beats constantly
         F                         G
Count my blessing every day as you love me
       F          Am                Em       F
As the sunset disappears across the northern sky
G               Am      G
You look for forever in my eyes
Em             F                G      Am
All that I can say as long as I have a voice
           F                               G
I'll thank God above that I was your first choice 
 
[Chorus]
            F            G     Asus4   Am
If I should die before I wake 
          F                            Cmaj7*
I'll go into the night whispering your name 
         Bm7                 Em                Am      G
If lying in your arms is the last thing that I do 
           F                 G        Asus4   A
At least I know that I'll be loved by you 
 
[Intro]
 
[Verse 2]
F          Am      Em         F
In about a hundred years from now
     G              Am      G
When all of my love letters are found
    Em                  F                  G              Am
And someone reads these words I've written only meant for you
F                             G
They'll know how forever came true 
 
[Chorus]

[Bridge]
        F             G    Asus4   Am
Let the years roll on by 
F                              Cmaj7*
These are the best times of my life 
Bm7             Em               Am       G
I'll just smile when my days are through 
F                            G       Asus4   A
Knowing that I've been loved by you 
           F                   G        Asus4   A
At least I know that I've been loved by you
