2By the time I was your age I've give anything 
    A#m5 
3To fall in love truly was all I could think 
            F#6 
4That's when I met your Mother, the girl of my dreams 
          G#7 
5The most beautiful woman that I'd ever seen 
6 
7She said, boy can I tell you a wonderful thing 
8I can't help but notice you staring at me 
9I know I shouldn't say this, but I really believe that 
10I can tell by your eyes that you're in love with me 
11 
    F#8      G#9    Aaug10        A#m11     
12Now son, I'm only telling you this 
   G#12    F#13             G#14  
13Because life can do terrible things 
14 
15Now, most of the time we'd have too much to drink 
16And we'd laugh at the stars and we'd share everything 
17Too young to notice, and too dumb to care 
18Love was a story that couldn't compare 
19 
20I said, girl, can I tell you a wonderful thing 
21I made you a present with paper and string 
22Open with care now, I'm asking you, please 
23You know that I love you, will you marry me 
24 
    F#15      G#16    Aaug17        A#m18     
25Now son, I'm only telling you this 
   G#19    F#20              G#21 
26Because life can do terrible things 
       F#22         G#23        Aaug24           A#m25  
27You'll learn, one day, I'll hope and I'll pray 
 G#26   F#27           G#28  
28That God shows you differently 
29 
30She said, boy can I tell you a terrible thing 
31It seems that I'm sick and I've only got weeks 
32Please, don't be sad now, I really believe 
33You were the greatest thing that ever happened to me 
34 
35Interlude:  
C#29 A#m30 F#31 G#32   x2 
36Slow, so slow I fell to the ground on my knees 
37 
38So don't fall in love, there's just too much to lose 
39If you're given the choice, then I beg you to choose 
40To walk away, walk away, don't let her get you 
41I can't bear to see the same happen to you 
42 
  F#33      G#34    Aaug35        A#m36     
43Now son, I'm only telling you this 
   G#37    F#38                    G#39  C#40 
44Because life can do terrible things
