(ch)C9/C(/ch) Bm7
There, there was a time I knew
Em Em/M7 Em7 Em6 Ab6-G7sus, G7
That no matter come what may, love will prevail
And then[CM7], inside the dreams [Bm7]I knew
Em Em7 Em6 Ab6 G7sus, G7
Came the question lover's fear, can true love fail
Refrain:
Then I would miss the[Gm7] childhood wish [C9sus]
And haven't I sung to[FM7] you[Em7][Dm7]
Of the knigh[Gm]t in armor bright,[Gm7]
Faithful and true to[DbM7] you[Bb7]
(chorus)
[Bb7] [sus] [/Bb7] [Em7] [Am7]
Dar------lin? after all
[Dm7]I will be the one to hold you[G] in my ar[D]ms[CM7]

(Ohh) I [Dm7]will be the one to hold you [G]
[E/Ab]I will be the one to hold yo[Am7]u in [G]my arms[FM7]
I[Em7]n my a[Dm7]rms [Dm7/Am] (Umm)
[C9-C]I know in my hear[Bm7]t and mind
Em Em7 Em6 Ab6 G7sus, G7
That no matter come what may, love will survive
CM9 CM& Bm7
Love, the author of space and time
Em Em7 Em6 Ab6 G7sus, G7
Keeps the galaxies and each sparrow alive
Refrain:
And the love th[Gm7]at heals the wound [C9sus]
After the war i[FM7]s thro[Em7]ugh[Dm7]
Is the kni[Gm]ght in armor bright, [Gm7]faithful and true to you[DbM7][Bb7]
