Lyrics

[Intro]
| Gm | Dm | C | - |

[Verse 1]
Gm               Dm               C
  There's an old song I wrote for you
                                   Gm
It was everything you'd want it to be
         Dm                  C
A melody lift, a minor chord fall
                             Gm
It was timeless like you and me
             Dm            C
And when the chorus hit it felt like flyin'
Gm            Dm              C
  It would've played at every wedding night,
and
It went like

[Chorus]
Bb
  You are my one,
F          C
you set my world on fire
Bb                  F
  I know there's Heaven,
       C
but we must be higher
Bb               F           C
  I'm gonna love you 'til my heart retires
              Gm
Forever we'll last
Dm                C
  I think it went something like that

[Verse 2]
Gm               Dm               C
  There's an old song I wrote for you
                               Gm
I would play it for all of our friends
                      Dm
It would make 'em all dance,
                  C
it'd make 'em all cry
When it's over they said,
          Gm
"Play it again"
             Dm             C
I would have sang it to you soft and sweet
Gm              Dm        C
  You'd want it every anniversary
And it went like

[Chorus]
Bb
  You are my one,
F          C
you set my world on fire
Bb                  F
  I know there's Heaven,
       C
but we must be higher
Bb               F           C
  I'm gonna love you 'til my heart retires
              Gm
Forever we'll last
Dm                C
  I think it went something like that

[Bridge]
Eb                             Bb
  Why'd you have to mess it all  up?
                             F
Why'd you have to burn it all down?
The words were so perfect,
the world should've heard it
                            Eb
And sang every line out loud
                             Bb
Why'd you have to mess it all  up?
                             F
Why'd you have to burn it all down?
Should've played on the radio,
day after day
                                      Eb
'Til they say that it's all played out
    Bb    C
Now,  now, now
And it went like

[Chorus]
Bb
  You are my one,
F          C
you set my world on fire
Bb                  F
  I know there's Heaven,
       C
but we must be higher
Bb               F           C
  I'm gonna love you 'til my heart retires
              Gm
Forever we'll last
Dm                C
  I think it went something like that
              Gm
Forever we'll last

[Outro]
Dm                C
  I think it went something like that
