(CN.C.)Oo,

I know you hear me, but do (Bm)you un der stand?

Yeah, we’ve been (F#m)mak in’ a scene.

I’ll keep on sing in’ while you (Bm)shake tam bou rine,

wheth er we’re broke, wheth er we’re (F#m)liv in’ the dream.

I see you laugh in’, but you (Bm)know what I mean.

I’m talk in’ ’bout the (F#m)highs.

I’m talk in’ ’bout the (Bm7)lows.

I’m stick in’ by your (F#m)side,

no way I’m let ting (Bm7)go.

I’m talk in’ ’bout for (F#m)ev er, ba (E)by.

I’m giv in’ you for (Bm)ev er, ba by; (A)it’s (D6)yours.

I’m talk in’ ’bout the (F#m)highs.

I’m talk in’ ’bout the (Bm7)lows.

When we’re (F#m)gray and we’re old

and we’ve run out of all that (Bm)sil ver and gold,

will you still wan na be my (F#m)some one to hold?

See, I would tell you but you (Bm)al rea dy know.
