Lyrics

It was no (A)ac ci dent,

me find ing (G)you.

Some one had a (D)hand in it

long be fore we ev er (A7sus)knew.

Now I just (A)can’t be lieve

a you’re in my (G)life.

Heav en’s smil in’ (D)down on me

as I look at you to (A7sus)night.

So, I tip my (G)hat

to the Keep er of the (F#m)Stars.

He sure knew what he was (Em)do in’

when he joined these two (D)hearts.

I hold ev ’ry (G)thing

when I hold you in my (F#m)arms.

I’ve got all I’ll (D)ev er (Em)need,

thanks to the Keep er of the (G)Stars.

Soft moon light (A)on your face,

oh, how you (G)shine.

It takes my a (D)breath a way

just to look in to your (A7sus)eyes.

I know I (A)don’t de serve

a treas ure like (G)you.

There real ly in’ (D)are no words

as to show my grat i (A7sus)tude.

So, I tip my (G)hat

to the Keep er of the (F#m)Stars.

He sure knew what he was (Em)do in’

when he joined these two (D)hearts.

I hold ev ’ry (G)thing

when I hold you in my (F#m)arms.

I’ve got all I’ll (D)ev er (Em)need,

thanks to the Keep er of the (G)Stars.

It was no (A)ac ci dent,

me find ing (G)you.

Some one had a (D)hand in it

long be fore we ev er (D)knew.
