G G/F# Em
Slow down,
D C D
we've got time left to be lazy
C G/B Am D
All the kids have bloomed from babies into flowers in our eyes.
G G/F# Em D C D
We've got fifty good years left to spend out in the garden
C Bm
I don't care to beg your pardon,
Am D
We should live
G G/F# Em D C D G G/F# G
until we die.


G G/F# C G - Am - Bm
We were barely eighteen when we'd crossed collective hearts.
C Bm Am D
It was cold, but it got warm when you'd barely crossed my eye.
G G/F# Em
and then you turned, put out your hand,
D C G
and you asked me to dance.
C Bm Am D
I knew nothing of romance, but it was love at second sight.


C D G G/F# Em D
I swear when I grow up, I won't just buy you a rose.
C D G G/F# Em D
I will buy the flower shop, and you will never be lonely.
C D
Even if the sun stops waking up over the fields
G B7 Em
I will not leave, I will not leave 'till it's our time.
C D G G/F# Em D C D G G/F# G
So just take my hand, you know that I will never leave your side.

It was the winter of '86, and all the fields had frozen over.
C Bm Am D
So we moved to Arizona to save our only son
G G/F# Em D
and now he's turning to a man,
C G
although he thinks just like his mother,
C Bm Am D
he believes we're all just lovers he sees hope in everyone.

G G/F# Em
And even though she moved away,
D C G
we always get calls from our daughter.
C Bm
She has eyes just like her father's
Am D
they are blue when skies are grey
G G/F# Em D
And just like him, she never stops,
C G
Never takes the day for granted,
C Bm
works for everything that's handed to her,
Am D
Never once complains.


C D G G/F# Em D
You think that I nearly lost you
C D G G/F# Em D
When the doctors tried to take you away.
C D G G/F# Em D
But like the night you took my hand beside the fire
C D
thirty years ago
G
to this day
C D
You swore you'd be here 'til we decide that it's our time
G B7/F# Em
Well it's not time, you've never quit in all your life.
C D G B7/F# Em
So just take my hand, you know that I'll never leave your side.

G G/F# Em D
You come home from work
C G
and you kiss me on the eye
C Bm Am D
You curse the dog you say that I should never feed them what is ours
G G/F# Em D
and so we move all to the garden
C G
look at everything we've owned
C Bm
now the kids are coming home
Am Bm C D
so I set the table
G
You can make the fire.
