Everlasting Love

F#m E   D A   Bm   A5


[Verse 1]
             F#m  D  A
Mighty as the river flows
D       E    F#m    D       A
Patient as a flower as she grows
  D    E   F#m        Bm           A
Love takes time, the road forever winds
     B             D         E
But always leads me back to you
  D       E      F#m  D    A
I guess I always knew all this
  D      E       F#m       D          A
I could see the future in that first kiss
     D     E  F#m      Bm          A
And touch by touch our love would grow
    B                  D                 E
But it would take some time before we'd know


[Chorus]
   A              E
Start the music, light the candles
  F#m           C#m
Take me back to lace and sandals
  D                       A
Two scared kids standing at the altar
 Bm                   C#m          D
Trying to look grown up on that first day
                          F#m  D  E
On our way to everlasting love


[Verse 2]
     D     E       F#m   D    A
It's funny how the times race by
  D      E     F#m           D          A
Days turn into years in the blink of an eye
        D       E    F#m           Bm       A
Through triumph and tears, through time and tide
        B             D            E
You've always made my heart stand still


[Chorus]
   A              E
Start the music, light the candles
  F#m           C#m
Take me back to lace and sandals
  D                       A
Two scared kids standing at the altar
 Bm                   C#m          D
Trying to look grown up on that first day
                            A
On our way to everlasting love


[Bridge]
     F               C
On mainstreet down backroads
      Dm              Em
We traveled light to ease the load
       F                    C
With just our love and a tattered road map
     Bm                E
And faith to guide us home


[Chorus]
   A              E
Start the music, light the candles
  F#m             C#m
Renew our vows in lace and sandals
      D                       A
Those same two kids trembling at the altar
      G                  E
Are standing strong and tall


[Solo]
   A     E
 F#m     C#m
   D     A
  Bm     Bm   C5


[Bridge]
       Bb                  F
Now we thank you for this dream we're living
  Gm              Dm
Clinging to what life has given
     D#               Bb             Cm      Dm
We sing the song we heard from high above
         D#
On that first day, on our way to everlasting...


[Outro]
   Gm F  D# Bb
...love
Cm         F      Bb
Ooh, everlasting love.
