[Verse 1]
C Csus4 Csus2 F Fadd11 F
I saw your deep blue eyes from afar
C Csus4 Csus2 F Fadd11 F
I saw you at the church bazaar
C Csus4 Csus2 F Fadd11 F
I asked the priest to introduce me to your mother
C Csus4 Csus2 F Fadd11 F
C Csus4 Csus2 F Fadd11 F
C Csus4 Csus2 F Fadd11 F
And I asked her to introduce us to each other
[Spoken words]

The first time i saw you, it was
A FM7/C G5/C D5
magic
[Verse 2]
C Csus4 Csus2 F Fadd11 F
I asked you to go on a picnic of our own
C Csus4 Csus2 F Fadd11 F
But you insisted on taking a chaperone
C Csus4 Csus2 F Fadd11 F
I apologized for being so bold and rude
C Csus4 Csus2 F Fadd11 F
So I invited your parents for lemonade and food
[Chorus]
A FM7/C
We're saving ourselves
G5/C D5
Saving ourselves for marriage
A FM7/C G5/C D5
Saving ourselves, for a baby carriage
GM7/D F CM7/G G5
Restraining ourselves, till the moment's right
GM7/D F CM7/G G5
Saving ourselves, for our wedding night
[Verse 3]
C Csus4 Csus2 F Fadd11 F
After four years of dating, I decided to take a risk
C Csus4 Csus2 F Fadd11 F
I held both your hands, and kissed your rose-petaled lips
C Csus4 Csus2 F Fadd11 F
We stared into each others' eyes, wondering what was next
C Csus4 Csus2 F Fadd11 F
But we knew not to ruin our love with pre-marital sex
[Instrumental]

[Verse 4]
C Csus4 Csus2 F Fadd11 F
Years went by, our courtship was grand
C Csus4 Csus2 F Fadd11 F
One day I asked your father for your hand
C Csus4 Csus2 F Fadd11 F
I'd never treat you like an object, only like a lady
C Csus4 Csus2 F Fadd11 F
I'd never consider having sex, except to have a baby
[Chorus]
A FM7/C
We're saving ourselves

Saving ourselves for marriage

Saving ourselves, for a baby carriage

Restraining ourselves, till the moment's right
GM7/D F CM7/G G5
Saving ourselves, for our wedding night
