[Verse 1]
F Fsus4 Fsus2 A# A#add11 F
I saw your deep blue eyes from afar
F Fsus4 Fsus2 A# A#add11 F
I saw you at the church bazaar
F Fsus4 Fsus2 A# A#add11 F
I asked the priest to introduce me to your mother
F Fsus4 Fsus2 A# A#add11 F
F Fsus4 Fsus2 A# A#add11 F
F Fsus4 Fsus2 A# A#add11 F
And I asked her to introduce us to each other

The first time i saw you, it was
D A#M7/F C5/F G5
magic
[Verse 2]
F Fsus4 Fsus2 A# A#add11 F
I asked you to go on a picnic of our own
F Fsus4 Fsus2 A# A#add11 F
But you insisted on taking a chaperone
F Fsus4 Fsus2 A# A#add11 F
I apologized for being so bold and rude
F Fsus4 Fsus2 A# A#add11 F
So I invited your parents for lemonade and food
[Chorus]
D A#M7/F
We're saving ourselves
C5/F G5
Saving ourselves for marriage
D A#M7/F C5/F G5
Saving ourselves, for a baby carriage
CM7/G A# FM7/C C5
Restraining ourselves, till the moment's right
CM7/G A# FM7/C C5
Saving ourselves, for our wedding night
[Verse 3]
F Fsus4 Fsus2 A# A#add11 F
After four years of dating, I decided to take a risk
F Fsus4 Fsus2 A# A#add11 F
I held both your hands, and kissed your rose-petaled lips
F Fsus4 Fsus2 A# A#add11 F
We stared into each others' eyes, wondering what was next
F Fsus4 Fsus2 A# A#add11 F
But we knew not to ruin our love with pre-marital sex
[Instrumental]

[Verse 4]
F Fsus4 Fsus2 A# A#add11 F
Years went by, our courtship was grand
F Fsus4 Fsus2 A# A#add11 F
One day I asked your father for your hand
F Fsus4 Fsus2 A# A#add11 F
I'd never treat you like an object, only like a lady
F Fsus4 Fsus2 A# A#add11 F
I'd never consider having sex, except to have a baby
[Chorus]
D A#M7/F
We're saving ourselves
