[Verse 1]
A Asus4 Asus2 D Dadd11 F
I saw your deep blue eyes from afar
A Asus4 Asus2 D Dadd11 F
I saw you at the church bazaar
A Asus4 Asus2 D Dadd11 F
I asked the priest to introduce me to your mother
A Asus4 Asus2 D Dadd11 F
A Asus4 Asus2 D Dadd11 F
A Asus4 Asus2 D Dadd11 F
And I asked her to introduce us to each other
[Spoken words]
F# DM7/A E5/A B5
The first time i saw you, it was
F# DM7/A E5/A B5
magic
[Verse 2]
A Asus4 Asus2 D Dadd11 F
I asked you to go on a picnic of our own
A Asus4 Asus2 D Dadd11 F
But you insisted on taking a chaperone
A Asus4 Asus2 D Dadd11 F
I apologized for being so bold and rude
A Asus4 Asus2 D Dadd11 F
So I invited your parents for lemonade and food
[Chorus]
F# DM7/A
We're saving ourselves
E5/A B5
Saving ourselves for marriage
F# DM7/A E5/A B5
Saving ourselves, for a baby carriage
EM7/B D AM7/E E5
Restraining ourselves, till the moment's right
EM7/B D AM7/E E5
Saving ourselves, for our wedding night
[Verse 3]
A Asus4 Asus2 D Dadd11 F
After four years of dating, I decided to take a risk
A Asus4 Asus2 D Dadd11 F
I held both your hands, and kissed your rose-petaled lips
A Asus4 Asus2 D Dadd11 F
We stared into each others' eyes, wondering what was next
A Asus4 Asus2 D Dadd11 F
But we knew not to ruin our love with pre-marital sex
[Instrumental]

[Verse 4]
A Asus4 Asus2 D Dadd11 F
Years went by, our courtship was grand
A Asus4 Asus2 D Dadd11 F
One day I asked your father for your hand
A Asus4 Asus2 D Dadd11 F
I'd never treat you like an object, only like a lady
A Asus4 Asus2 D Dadd11 F
I'd never consider having sex, except to have a baby
[Chorus]
F# DM7/A
We're saving ourselves
E5/A B5
Saving ourselves for marriage
F# DM7/A E5/A B5
Saving ourselves, for a baby carriage
EM7/B D AM7/E E5
Restraining ourselves, till the moment's right
EM7/B D AM7/E E5
Saving ourselves, for our wedding night
