Lyrics
The story of my (C)life
(C)is very plain to (F)read.
(F)It starts the day you (G)came
(G)and ends the day you (C)leave.
(G7)It's The story of my (C)life
(C)begins and ends with (F)you.
(F)The names are still the (G)same,
(G)and the story's still the (C)truth.
(Am)I was alone.
You found me waiting and made (G)me your own.
And (Am)I was afraid
that somehow a I never could (G)be
the (F6)man that you wanted of (G7)me.
(G7)You're the story of my (C)life,
(C)and ev'ry word is (F)true.
(F)Each chapter sings your (G)name;
(G)each page begins with (C)you.
(G7)It's The story of our (C)times
(C)and never letting (F)go.
(F)And if I die (G)today,
(G)and I wanted you to (C)know.
(Am)Stay with me here.
Share with me;
care with me;
stay (G)and be near.
And (Am)when it began,
that I'd lie awake nev ev'ry (G)night,
just (F6)knowing somehow deep in (G7)me.
(G7)You're the story of my (G)side
that (F6)our affair just might (G)write
(G7)the story of my (C)life,
(C)so very plain to (F)read.
(F)It starts the day you (G)came
(G7)and ends the day you (C)leave.
