Capo on 4th fret 
C                 Bb  F           C
I've been with you for a fairly long time,
C                               Bb  F            C
May I call you, may I call you, may I call you mine?
C            Bb F                C
And you unknown, have been with me,
C                             Bb  F          C
May it always, may it always, may it always be,
C                           Bb F           C
Please don't leave my side, remember I love you,
C                         Bb      F                    C
None of what I have done wrong was really done against you,
     C                               Bb   F                C
If you love me and I'm weak, then weaker you must love me more,
   C                                Bb      F                  C
To reinforce what's all so strong, in all the love we have in store,

C                    Bb F             C
By example you showed me, living's alright,
C                                    Bb  F            C
Stay here with me, stay here with me, stay with me tonight,
C                       Bb F            C
And come with me when I go into the bedroom,
C                                                Bb   F               C
And we'll play bride, and we'll play bride, and we'll play bride and groom,


Bb
If you had not been born you know,
Bb           Bb                C
 What would I, What would I be then?
Bb      
I would not have strength to grow,
       Bb              Bb             C
And be counted, and be counted among men.

C                         Bb F           C
Please don't leave my side, remember I love you,
C                         Bb      F                    C
None of what I have done wrong was really done against you,
     C                               Bb   F                C
If you love me and I'm weak, then weaker you must love me more,
   C                                Bb      F                  C
To reinforce what's all so strong, in all the love we have in store,

 
[SOLO - I'm not tabbing it. YOU tab it.]

C                         Bb           F                     C
And in the morning we'll wrestle and ruin our stomachs with coffee,
C                           Bb   F      C
Won't we be, won't we be, won't we be happy?
C                 Bb  F          C
We will rise in anger, love and ardor,
C                   Bb  F                C
Shining, shining, shimmering in love's armor.
