Bb F Gm
Slow down,
F         Eb                F   
we've got time left to be lazy
        Bb        F         Gm F     Eb                F
All the kids have bloomed from babies into flowers in our eyes.
          Bb    F  Gm    F      Eb                F
We've got fifty good years left to spend out in the garden
         Eb              Dm
I don't care to beg your pardon,
           Cm    F
We should live
           Bb F Gm F Eb F Bb Bb Bb
until we die.


        Bb         F            Gm                   Dm Eb F
We were barely eighteen when we'd crossed collective hearts.
        Eb               Dm            Cm                 F
It was cold, but it got warm when you'd barely crossed my eye.
             Bb           F    Gm
and then you turned, put out your hand,
   F    Eb           F
and you asked me to dance.
        Eb          Dm                 Cm             F
I knew nothing of romance, but it was love at second sight.


  Eb                F                           Bb F Gm F
I swear when I grow up, I won't just buy you a rose.
       Eb              F                             Bb F Gm F
I will buy the flower shop, and you will never be lonely.
Eb                     F
Even if the sun stops waking up over the fields
             Bb               F            Gm
I will not leave, I will not leave 'till it's our time.
         Eb                         F                       Bb F Gm F Eb F Bb Bb Bb
So just take my hand, you know that I will never leave your side.

           Bb         F            Gm                Dm Eb F
It was the winter of '86, and all the fields had frozen over.
        Eb        Dm        Cm           F
So we moved to Arizona to save our only son
             Bb F Gm F
and now he's turning to a man,
            Eb                    F
although he thinks just like his mother,
      Eb                   Dm              Cm          F
he believes we're all just lovers he sees hope in everyone.


         Bb          F  Gm
And even though she moved away,
    F         Eb              F
we always get calls from our daughter.
        Eb                 Dm
She has eyes just like her father's
         Cm                  F
they are blue when skies are grey
              Bb        F   Gm   F
And just like him, she never stops,
       Eb                F
Never takes the day for granted,
Eb                           Dm
works for everything that's handed to her,
Cm             F
Never once complains.


Eb                 F      Bb F Gm F
You think that I nearly lost you
          Eb               F         Bb F Gm F
When the doctors tried to take you away.
              Eb               F                Bb F Gm F
But like the night you took my hand beside the fire
        Eb       F
thirty years ago 
         Bb
to this day
Eb                               F     
You swore you'd be here 'til we decide that it's our time
               Bb                 F           Gm
Well it's not time, you've never quit in all your life.
         Eb                         F                      Bb F Gm
So just take my hand, you know that I'll never leave your side.
            Eb                            F                    Bb F Gm F Eb F Bb Bb Bb
You're the love of my life, you know that I'll never leave your side.

          Bb        F Gm F
You come home from work
         Eb             F
and you kiss me on the eye
              Eb                Dm              Cm                F
You curse the dog you say that I should never feed them what is ours
           Bb      F    Gm    F
and so we move out to the garden
        Eb                F
look at everything we've owned
        Eb              Dm
now the kids are coming home
   Cm              Dm Eb F
so I set the table
                  Bb
You can make the fire.
