d
Hoping for a new beginning
b
To take me away from my surroundings
g b a
So I can finally say goodbye
d
Wondering what'll become of us
b
When we are all old and gray
g
And this time that we've spent together
b a
Was well worth our wait
d b
Think of the fun that we had
Not caring until the next morning
g
It feels so good to go through life
b a
With your eyes half open
-------------------------------------------------------
d b
We are all one and the same
g
We are lovers, and brothers, and sisters
b a
And most of all friends
-----------------------------------------------------
d
These years have passed us by so fast
b
It seems like we never got the chance
g
To realize how good life really was
b a
And let the moment last
d
And it feels like it was only yesterday
b
When we walked into this place
g b a
And said I can't wait till I get out of here
d b
And now as we walk down this aisle
g
With four years all rolled up in a scroll, you can't help but think
b a
Hey, Where did the time go
-----------------------------------------------------------

d b
We are all one and the same

We are lovers, and brothers, and sisters

b g
Hold on to your memories
b g
Hold on to those little things
b g
And I hope you receive as much as you get
d a
Cause when you die they're the only things
d g
That you can take to your grave

d
Good friends we had along the way
b
And good friends that didn't make it to where we stand today
g b a
But we all know that they're looking down on us
d b
And even though their lives were cut short
g
We still remember the little thing that made us laugh about them
b a
And do you remember when and where did you meet them?

And as we approach this final day

Where we all will go our separate ways

So go hug and kiss your friends

And say goodbye to them
