[Verse 1]
  G             F#m7-5    B7       Em 
I can't remember when you weren't there,
 Dm7    Dm7/G    CM7              Bm7   D7 
When I didn't care for any one but you.
    G                      F#m7-5  B7        Em 
I swear. We've been through everything there is,
              Dm7  Dm7/G       CM7 
Can't imagine anything we've missed,
               Bm7         Am7              D7sus   D7 
Can't imagine anything the two of us can't do.
 

[Chorus]
            G            Em           Am7   
Through the years you've never let me down, 
       D9        C7     Bm7 
you've turned my life around,
     Em                 Am7                  D7sus  D7 
The sweetest days I've found I've found with you.
 C7         Bm             E7-9       Am7  
Through the years I've never been afraid, 
      D9       C7         Bm7 
I've loved the life we've made,
    E        Csus2                     Bm7  Am7    
And I'm so glad I've stayed right here with you.

  G             F#m7-5    B7       Em 
I can't remember what I used to do,
 Dm7    Dm7/G    CM7                  Bm7     D7 
Who I trusted who I listened to before.
    G                      F#m7-5  B7        Em 
I swear. You've taught me everything I know.
              Dm7  Dm7/G       CM7 
Can't imagine needing someone so,
                       Bm7

I need you more and more.

I've always been so glad to be with you.
            Bm          E7-9          Am7  
Through the years, it's better every day. 
        D9        C7    Bm7 
You've kissed my tears away,
    E         Csus2            Bm7  Am7  
As long as it's okay I'll stay with you.

Through the years, when everything went wrong,

together we were strong,
  Fm            Bbm7                  Eb7sus 
I know that I belong right here with you.
 C#7         Cm        F7-9       Bbm7 
Through the years, I never had a doubt,

we'd always work things out,
    Fm                  C#sus2
