(Intro.)
|(D) / / / |(F#m) / / / |(G) / / / |

(Verse 1)
(G) If I die before you (A)
I hope you buy that Mustang (F#m)
I hope you paint the kitchen blue (G)
Like you've always wanted to (G)
If I die before you (D)
I hope you get on an airplane (F#m)
And take in that ocean (G) view
Somewhere in Timbuk-(G)tu

(Chorus)
(A) We don't have to talk (Bm) too much about it
(G) Just let me say it, then (D) I'll stop
(A) Our best years are ahead (Bm) of us, don't doubt it
(G) But all our names end up on a rock
So if (Bm)God takes me first
'Cause we (F#m)don't get to choose
Baby, for-(G)give Him
And keep (Gm)living if I die before you

(Verse 2)
(D) I hope you keep on laughing
(F#m) With our crazy, beautiful (G)kids
Keep dancing like we (G)do
(G)Underneath the moon
(D) You can fall in love again
(F#m) Wait, nevermind (G)
Fine, just not (G)too soon

(Chorus)
(A) We don't have to talk (Bm) too much about it
(G) Just let me say it, then (D) I'll stop
(A) Our best years are ahead (Bm) of us, don't doubt it
(G) But all our names end up on a rock
So, if (Bm)God takes me first
'Cause we (F#m)don't get to choose
Baby, for-(G)give Him
And keep (Gm)living if I die before you (D)

(Bridge)
Oh, oh, (F#m)oh
Oh, oh, (G)oh
Oh, oh, (G)oh
But tonight (A)
We (Bm)still got each other and the (G)rest of this bottle (Gm)of wine

(Out-Chorus)
(A) We don't have to talk (Bm) too much about it
(G) I�fm just crossing T�fs (D) and dotting I's
(A) Our best years are ahead (Bm) of us, don't doubt it
(G) And they�fll keep going on (D) the other side
But if (Bm)God takes me first
'Cause we (F#m)don't get to choose
Baby, for-(G)give Him
And keep (Gm)living - - - - -
