Oh (C)how could I have (G)known that (C)all my life I (G)on ly (B)need ed (Em)you?

(C)Oh, al most (G)par a dise, we’re knock in’ on (Em)heav en’s door.

Al most (G)par a dise.

How (Em)could we ask for more?

I (C)swear that I can (Am)see for ev er (G)in your (D7)eyes.

(C)Par a (G)dise.

It seems like (D)per fect love’s so (Em)hard to find,

I’d (C)al most giv en (G)up.

You (D7)must have read my mind.

And all these (D)dreams I saved for (Em)rain y day,

they’re (C)fi n’lly com ing (G)true.

I’ll (C)share them all with (G)you, ’cause (C)now we hold the (G)fu ture (B)in our (Em)hands.
