D
When your legs don’t work
          G              A D
Like they used to before,
D
And I can’t sweep you
             G   A D
Off of your feet,
D
Will your mouth still remember
     G              A  D
The taste of my love,
D
Will your eyes still smile
G                A
From your cheeks?

         D                 G
Darling, I will be loving you
 A               D G A
Till we’re seventy,
           D
And baby, my heart could still feel
G   A                D
As hard at twenty three,
G                  A7
And I’m thinking ’bout
    Em7                     G  A7      D
How people fall in love in mysterious ways,
Em7                     G   A
Maybe just the touch of a hand,
     Em7                      G
Well me, I fall in love with you
    A         Bm
Every single day,
    Em7                   G  A7
And I just wanna tell you I am,

Chorus:
                D
     So honey, now
   G  A7                      D
     Take me into your loving arms,
   G  A7                            D
     Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars,
   G        A7                      D
     Place your head on my beating heart,
                   G   A7
     I’m thinking out loud
           Bm  A     G    D     Em7   A  D
     Maybe we found love right where we are.

D
When my hair’s all
                 G           A D
But gone and my memory fades,
                                  G   A D
And the crowds don’t remember my name,
                      G
When my hands don’t play the strings
A         A7     D
The same way, mmm,
                                   G    A
I know you will still love me the same.

 A7           D
‘Cause honey your soul
              G  A               D   G A
Could never grow old, it’s evergreen,
     A7    D
And baby, your smile’s
        G      A        A7  D
Forever in my mind and memory.
G             A7
I’m thinking ’bout
    Em7                     G  A7      D
How people fall in love in mysterious ways,
    Em7                    G   A
And maybe it’s all part of a plan,
      Em7
Well, I’ll just keep on
         G  A      Bm
Making the same mistakes,
Em7                   G   A7
Hoping that you’ll understand

Chorus

    A7         D
     So baby, now
   G  A7                      D
     Take me into your loving arms,
   G  A7                            D
     Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars,
         G                   A7
     Oh, darling, place your head
                    D
     On my beating heart,
                   G   A7
     I’m thinking out loud
           Bm  A     G    D     Em7   A  D
     Maybe we found love right where we are,
               Bm  A     G    D     Em7   A  D
     Oh, baby, we found love right where we are,
         Bm  A     G    D     Em7   A  D
     And we found love right where we are.
