D D A A D D G G
I don't get many things right the first time
D D Bm Bm C C C C
In fact, I am told that a lot
A A A/C# A/C#
Now I know all the wrong turns,
D D G G D D Bm Bm F#m F#m A A
The stumbles and falls brought me here

Bm Bm G G Bm Bm
And where was I before the day
E E A A
That I first saw your lovely face
F#m F#m G G G G
Now I see it every day
D D A A
And I know

D D A A
That I am
Bm Bm F#m F#m
I Am Am
G G D D-A A D D A A
I am the luckiest

D D A A
What if I'd been born
D D G G
Fifty years before you
D D
In a house
Bm Bm C C C C
On the street where you live

A A A/C# A/C#
Maybe I'd be outside
D D G G
As you passed on your bike
D D Bm Bm F#m F#m A A
Would I know?

Bm Bm G G Bm Bm
And in a wide see of eyes
E E A A F#m F#m G G Gsus2 Gsus2 G G
I see one pair I recognize

D D A A
And I know

D D A A
That I am
Bm Bm F#m F#m
I Am Am
G G D D-A A D D A A
I am the luckiest


Em Em Bm Bm
I love you more than I have
Bm Bm D D G G D D A A
Ever found a way to say to you

D D
Next door
A A
There's an old man
D D G G
Who lived to his nineties
D D Bm Bm C C C C
And one day, passed away in his sleep

A A A/C# A/C#
And his wife, she stayed
D D G G D D Bm Bm F#m F#m A A
For a couple of days and passed away

Bm Bm G G
I'm sorry, I know that's a
Bm Bm E E A A
Strange way to tell you that I know
F#m F#m G G G G
We belong
D D A A
That I know

D D A A
That I am
Bm Bm F#m F#m
I Am Am
G G D D-A A Bm Bm F#m F#m G G D D A A D D
I am the luckiest
