 Now May and I were two children just swimming in a pool
       Bm                A                 G                  D
 We'd ride on rockets, swing-sets and we tried to touch the moon
    Bm             A                G                    D
 And I will never forget the first time she touched my hand
         Bm                A                  G            D    
 I knew this could be the one who would make me an honest man

G         A                Bm 
 She was like the way she was
G         A                D
 She was like the way she was

 Now we got older faster than we ever could have seen

 Lights went down on graduation then on a wedding ring
 Bm                   A               G           D
 We bought our first house and had a baby on the way
             Bm             A
 But during birth I got my daughter
         G           D
 Jesus took away my May

     A                     Bm         G
 And I didn't know how to say what I felt
     A                     Bm          G
 No, I didn't know how to say what it felt like


  D                     A
 She was just like she was
           Bm                                G
 When you looked into her eyes you'd come undone
  D                     A
 She was just like she was
                             Bm
 She could love you on your worst day
                            G

          A        D

 I just couldn't braid her hair
 Bm               A             G                D
 One day she got old enough to have her wedding day
     Bm                A
 But as I walked her down the aisle

 But May I hope you can see what I see
                                 Em              A
