^GIn earlier days there was plenty of time just to play the field. ^CPlayed the cards as they fell, fell in l^Gove with her as she dealed. ^EmNever thought those d^Cays would pass and I^G’d be growing o^Dld. ^EmNever thought I’d go loo^Cking for she^Glter from the c^Dold, from the c^Gold

[Verse 2]

^GSometimes I’d pick the wrong side I wouldn’t call that a mistake. ^CWinning some and losing some you c^Gan’t always get the breaks. ^EmNever thought I’d look ^Cso far back to what se^Gems like yesterd^Day. ^EmNever thought those you^Cthful days would e^Gver slip aw^Day slip aw^Gay

[Verse 3]

^GUsed to wonder if I’d find someone and raise a family. ^CNo that didn’t happen I guess it wa^Gsn’t meant to be. ^EmNever thought, that ^CI’d conclude it^G’s really not ^Dtoo bad. ^EmI never thought ^Cabout it for long, can’t^G miss what you neve^Dr had, never^G had

[Verse 4]

^GThen one day in an unexpected way, I ran into you. ^CI didn’t wonder if you were right for me it was s^Gomething I already knew. ^EmNever thought that n^Cecessarily w^Ge would go this f^Dar. ^EmNever thought you’d still be b^Cy my side lik^Ge a shining sta^Dr, shining sta^Gr.

[Chorus]

^EmNow I can see your smiling eyes w^Chere ever we call home. ^GI can see your smiling eyes when I f^Dind myself alone. ^EmI can feel those smiling eyes as you w^Crap your arms around me. ^GI can see your smiling eyes when we k^Diss at the lucky tree ^G
