    G                             
You gave me back my soul again by 
A7
showin' me
    C                D            
The laughter and the wonder in 
  G    D
your eyes
G                                 
Saved me from the shuttered man I

   Opened up the windows of my 
    D
life

And the happiness you've given me 
     A7
for lovin' you

Is sweeter, love, and deeper every 
G    D
day

Continues after the ad
   C                D

        G/D                  C
your wings     and I'll set you free
   G             D
To fly away, and it's okay
               G           
'Cause darlin' time changes 
 C          G/D                    
everything     but it won't change
