It Did

 
              D 
 
  D 
A single red rose and a table for two 
 
A nice chardonnay and an ocean view 
G 
Ships comin in and stars comin out 
 
We sat and we talked til the place closed down 
       D 
And we took a long walk down on the beach 
 
Her in that white dress and her bare feet  
   G 
We stopped and we watched the lighthouse light 
 
I pulled her close and I held on tight 
     Bm         A 
And I said to myself 
   G 
It doesn't get better than this 
                                        D 
No it doesn't get better than this 
 
       Bm 
And it did 
   A 
it did 
      G 
Oh it did 
 
D 
Fast forward to that next spring 
 
Lookin for a preacher pickin out rings 
G 
Family comin in and friends comin out  
 
To that little white church on the outskirts of town 
D 
Me in that tux fighting butterflies 
 
Tears of joy in my momma's eyes 
G 
Her daddy walkin her down the aisle 
 
He lifted that veil and I saw that smile 
     Bm         A 
And I said to myself 
   G 
It doesn't get better than this 
                                        D 
No it doesn't get better than this 
 
       Bm 
But it did 
   A 
It did 
      G 
Oh it did 
 
G                                 
Just when I start thinkin it's as good as it can get 
 
This crazy life does something just to let me know 
                        D         A          G 
I haven't seen anything yet  
 
D 
Nine months later nearly to the day 
 
There we were flying down the interstate 
G 
Car weavin in and car weavin out 
 
Through traffic runnin every red light in town 
D 
Delivery room and the doctor comes in  
 
I'm right beside her she's squeezin my hand 
G 
One more push and a baby cries 
 
Sweet little angel with his momma's eyes 
     Bm         A 
And I said to myself 
   G 
It doesn't get better than this 
                                       D 
No it doesn't get better than this 
 
       Bm   
And it did 
   A 
It did 
      G 
Oh it did 
 
Yes it did 
 
D
