Every hour, every day
  G                    Em
A kiss or laugh, every photograph
      Am           D
Every sunny holiday
        Em            D           
They're living sun as soul never 
  C        D
to grow old
      G            Em          D
And I cherish each day that we have

These precious memories of again
        Am             D          
When we partied and we sang 'til 
   G
the early hours
          Em            Am        
Stumblin' home, hand in hand in 
        D
the after glow
Em            D        
Nothing was rehearsed, so 
   C             D

        G                C        
And the thrill is still alive oh,

[Chorus]
  C

Oh, yeah
         C
You were crazy old dance
            G
But I would not take no for an 
answer
     A                   
With tongue-in-cheek, you 
              D
reluctantly agreed


[Verse 3]
                        G
These precious memories
     Em      Am           D
Of hotels in New York and Paris
     G                Em
Long summer nights in Central Park
Am                     D
Rides in a horse-drawn carriage
    Em          D
The ups and the downs
        C                 D
We made every second count
        G             Em     
And you still make my heart go 
       D
boom-boom-boom

That we made, remember our first

date
         G                   Em
You were nervous, but fine until you
Am                      D
Knocked over a glass of wine
          Em            D
You said "Ooh, baby I'm sorry"
        C                D
I said "Honey, don't you worry"

"You were gorgeous then, and still
          G
 gorgeous now"
           Em                 D
You said, "Oopsie daisey, I'm sorry"
         C                    D
I said, "Ooh, baby, don't you worry
         G                  C     
You were gorgeous then, and still 
         G
gorgeous now"
