(Original Key: F)


Intro:

F#  Ebm  Abm  B,
F#  Ebm  A (n.c)

Verse 1:

(n.c)	        D
 Wouldn't it be nice,
If we were older?
And we wouldn't,
G                Em7
 Have to wait so long.
    A7             D
And wouldn't it be nice,
To live together,
	       G
In the kind of world,
            Em7   A7
Where we be-long?

Bridge 1:

Bm7
 You know it's gonna make it,
Am7
 That much better,
Bm7
 When we can say goodnight,
    F#m7    Em7     A7
And stay to-gether.

Verse 2:

               D
Wouldn't it be nice,
If we could wake up,
In the morning,
G                Em7
 When the day is new?
    A7
And after having,
D
 Spent the day together;
                G
Hold each other close,
                Em7      A7
The whole night through.

Bridge 2:

Bm7
 What happy times together,
Am7
 We'd be spending,
Bm7
 I wish that every kiss,
    F#m7   Em7      A7
Was ne-ver end-ing.
	           D
Oh, wouldn't it be nice?

Middle 8:

F#  Ebm  Abm  B,

Bmaj7        Emaj7
 Maybe if we think and wish,
And hope and pray,
   Ebm7             Abm7
It might come true?
Bmaj7             Emaj7
 Maybe then there wouldn't be,
                  Ebm7         Abm7
A single thing we couldn't do?

	    Ebm7
We could be married,
             Abm7
(We could be married),
	         Ebm7
And then we'd be happy,
              A7
(Then we'd be happy).
	           D
Oh, wouldn't it be nice?

Bridge 3:

(Slower Tempo):

Bm7
 You know it seems the more,
   Am7
We talk about it,
Bm7
 It only makes it worse,
   F#m7      Em7
To live with-out it,
	 F#m7   Em7      A7
But lets talk a-bout it.

(Faster Tempo):

	       D
Wouldn't it be nice?

Coda:

D
 Good night, baby,
Sleep tight, baby,
Good night, baby,
Sleep tight, baby.

(Repeat to Fade)
