[Esus2] [Am] [Esus2]
[A]If I ever[E] write the[Bsus2] story of my life
Don't be [A]surprised if you're where it[E] begins
Girl, I'd[E] have to dedicate every[Bsus2] line on every page
To the [C]memories we made, while[Esus4] you loved me
I was [E]born [A]the day you[Bsus2] kissed me
And I [E]died in[A]side the night[Bsus2] you left me
But I [C#m]lived, o[D]h how I [A]lived
While you [E]loved me[Am][Esus2]
I'd [A]start with chapter[E] one, love[Bsus2] innocent and young
As the morning [A]sun on a ne[E]w day
Even [E]though I know the end, well I'd [Bsus2]do it all again
'Cause I [C]got a lifetime in, while[Esus4] you loved me
I was [E]born [A]the day you[Bsus2] kissed me
And I [E]died in[A]side the night[Bsus2] you left me
But I [C#m]live, o[D]h how I [A]live
While you [E]loved me
