Am           Am7+   Am7 
Where do I begin 
             Am6          E 
To tell the story of how great a love can be 
     E7                       Am            Am7+ 
The sweet love story that is older than the sea 
            Am7            E7 
The simple truth about the love she brings to me  
E7    Dm7 E7  Am 
Where do  I  start 
Am           Am7+   Am7 
With her first hello 
              Am6             E 
She gave new meaning to this empty world of mine 
E7                       Am            Am7+ 
There'd never be another love, another time 
         Am7               E7 
She came into my life and made the living fine  
    E7/13  E7  A      A7M   A7 
She fills my heart. 
Bridge 
    A7   Fdim   Dm    Dm7          G7 
She fills  my  heart     with very special things 
     Dm7      C7M   C7M/9            C7M         C7M 
With angels' songs,      with wild imaginings 
             Dm  Dm7+     Dm7      Am 
She fills my soul    with so much love 
     Am7+       Dm7           G7 
That anywhere I go I'm never lonely 
          C7M    C7M/9             F7M 
With her around,      who could be lonely 
  Dm7                                E7 
I reach for her hand  it's always there 
Am               Am7+   Am7 
How long does it last 
             Am6              E 
Can love be measured by the hours in a day 
           E7              Am             Am7+ 
I have no answers now but this much I can say 
             Am7                E7             E7 
I know I'll need her till the stars all burn  away 
    Dm7     E7  Am 
And she'll be there
