Words & Music by
        Bill Leverty & C. J. Snare

NOTEs: (1) Tune guitar down 1/2-step to play along with CD.
       (2) Acoustic part sounds great with a 12-string!
       (3) I did not attempt to tab the solo.

Play this rhythm pattern throughout the verses:

VERSE 1:
I guess the time was right for us to say
we'd take our time and live our lives
together day by day.

We'll make a wish and send it on a prayer.
We know our dreams can all come true
with love that we can share.

BRIDGE:

( ) = pick in reverse (do not strum)

     Am7         Bm7    (B11)
With you I never wonder
   Am7               Bm7
will you be there for me.
     Am7           Bm7
With you I never wonder.
  (B11)         C       D
You're the right one for me.

CHORUS:
  G5                    Bm       C5      D5
I finally found the love of a lifetime.
  G5                   Bm            C5    D5
A love to last my whole life through.
  G5                    Bm       C5      D5
I finally found the love of a lifetime.
  A5          B5        C5         
Forever in my heart, I finally found the
  D5          G5     Bm     C5     D5
love of a lifetime.

VERSE 2:
With every kiss our love is like brand new,
and every star up in the sky was made
for me and you.

Still we both know that the road is long.
We know that we will be together
because our love is strong.

(repeat Chorus)

Love of a lifetime.
   E5                   A5    C#5     D5
I finally found the love
E5       B5               C#5
 Oo!  Forever in my heart,
    D5                  E5
