[Verse]
F F/E Dm
Slow down,
C A# C
we've got time left to be lazy
F F/E Dm C A# C
All the kids have bloomed from babies into flowers in our eyes.
F F/E Dm C A# C
We've got fifty good years left to spend out in the garden
A# Am
I don't care to beg your pardon,
Gm C
We should live
F F/E Dm C A# C F F/E F
until we die.
[Chorus]
F F/E Dm Am A# C
We were barely eighteen when we'd crossed collective hearts.
A# Am Gm C
It was cold, but it got warm when you'd barely crossed my eye.
F F/E Dm
and then you turned, put out your hand,
C A# C
and you asked me to dance.
A# Am Gm C
I knew nothing of romance, but it was love at second sight.
[Verse]
A# C F F/E Dm C
I swear when I grow up, I won't just buy you a rose.
A# C F F/E Dm C
I will buy the flower shop, and you will never be lonely.
A# C
Even if the sun stops waking up over the fields
F F/E Dm
I will not leave, I will not leave 'till it's our time.
A# C F F/E Dm C A# C F F/E F
So just take my hand, you know that I will never leave your side.
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
F F/E Dm Am A# C
It was the winter of '86, and all the fields had frozen over.
A# Am Gm C
So we moved to Arizona to save our only son
F F/E Dm C
and now he's turning to a man,
A# C
although he thinks just like his mother,
A# Am Gm C
he believes we're all just lovers he sees hope in everyone.
F F/E Dm
And even though she moved away,
C A# C
we always get calls from our daughter.
A# Am
She has eyes just like her father's
Gm C
they are blue when skies are grey
F F/E Dm C
And just like him, she never stops,
A# C
Never takes the day for granted,
A# Am
works for everything that's handed to her,
Gm C
Never once complains.
[Chorus]
A# C F F/E Dm C
You think that I nearly lost you
A# C F F/E Dm C
When the doctors tried to take you away.
A# C F F/E Dm C
But like the night you took my hand beside the fire
A# C
thirty years ago
F
to this day
A# C
You swore you'd be here 'til we decide that it's our time
F F/E Dm
Well it's not time, you've never quit in all your life.
A# C F F/E Dm
So just take my hand, you know that I'll never leave your side.
A# C F F/E Dm C A# C F F/E F
You're the love of my life, you know that I'll never leave your side.

A# Am Gm Am A# C
A# Am Gm C
[Verse]
F F/E Dm C
You come home from work
A# C
and you kiss me on the eye
A# Am Gm C
You curse the dog you say that I should never feed them what is ours
F F/E Dm C
and so we move all to the garden
A# C
look at everything we've owned
A# Am
now the kids are coming home
Gm Am A# C
so I set the table
F
You can make the fire.
