We walked on the (Eb6/9)beach be side that (Fsus2)old ho tel.
They’re tear in’ it (Eb6/9)down now, but it’s (Fsus2)just as well.
I have n’t shown you (Eb6/9)ev ’ry thing a (Fsus2)man can do,
so stay with me, (Eb6/9)ba by; I’ve got (Fsus2)plans for you.
This is the time
to re mem ber, ’cause it will not last for ev er.
These are the days
to hold on to, ’cause we won’t al though we’ll want to.
This is the time,
but time is gon na (G7sus)change.
You’ve giv en me the (Gb)best of you,
but now I need the (Bb)rest (F)of you.
