G                   D           Bm                 A
When I was a little boy my only dream was a yellow bus
            G              A                 D
Dropping us kids off after school to run around
         G                   D                 Bm                    A
Tackling tree-forts and B.B. guns, tossing our lines in and catching frogs
               G                         A                   D
Twelve hundred miles from a freckle face southern girl's hometown
     F#m                                 G
Only God knew how my trail would someday cross
                 F#m                             A
Mmm, that little girl, oh all grown up and how I'd fall

[Chorus]
           D                                G
My only regret in life is I didn't meet you sooner
             D                          A
I would have spent my wasted youth all on you
         D                                     G
I know I wasn't in your life for those first chapters
                  Bm                          A
Mmm, but I'd sure love to be, girl, won't you write with me
                   G  D  Bm  A
Your happily ever after

[Verse 2]
        G                D              Bm               A
Finding love in modern world, it can be crazy, it can be work
               G                   A                     D
Not like those fairy tales that we heard in our younger years
          G                         D                 Bm                   A
So, I redefined what I thought love was, so I could settle then you showed up
              G              A              D
And made everyone who came before you disappear
        F#m                             G
I never knew that love could be easy as breathing
         F#m                       A
You were everything I never knew I needed

[Chorus]
           D                                G
My only regret in life is I didn't meet you sooner
             D                          A
I would have spent my wasted youth all on you
             D                                     G
And though I wasn't in your life for those first chapters
                  Bm                          A
Mmm, but I'd sure love to be, girl, won't you write with me
                   G  D  Bm  A
Your happily ever after

[Interlude]
G  D  Bm  A

[Bridge]
              F#m
You finish my thoughts, you make me laugh
          G                A
I finally found my other half

[Chorus]
           D                                G
My only regret in life is I didn't meet you sooner
             D                          A
I would have spent my wasted youth all on you
             D                                     G
And though I wasn't in your life for those first chapters
                  Bm                          A
Mmm, but I'd sure love to be, girl, won't you write with me
               Bm                          A
Yeah, I'd sure love to be, girl, won't you write with me
                   G  D  Bm  A
Your happily ever after
                   G  D  Bm  A  G
Your happily ever after
