As recorded by Johnny Cash (1993 recording from the 2024 Album SONGWRITER) [Intro] F G C [Verse 1]
C                  G                 C
It sure has been a party, hasn't it, baby?

      F                     G              C
We've really been down that road a time or two

F                        G           C                Am
We checked into the best hotels from San Francisco to Paris

    D7                         G
And lived like royalty, me and you

      C                G                 C
But remember years ago in that church in Ottawa

   F               G                  C
We told God of our love and asked for His care

    F             G             C
And so He made us happen and He blessed us

Am            D7             G                  C
So if we were in the fold or out, He was always there
[Chorus]
    F      G     C
And I love you tonite

F                G                C
Even more than I loved you in the sixties

    F      G           C     Am
And I know that we are right

D7                              G
Even more than I knew it in the seventies

    F     G          C
Oh, baby, ain't we a sight?

    F              G                   C
Can you believe we made it through the eighties?

    F                  G
And will we make the millennium?

         C     Am
Well, we might

F      G     C    F G C
I love you tonite
[Verse 2]
C                 G            C
It's funny how we never settle down

          F                 G              C
Though we love our home and sittin' by the fire

       F                    G               C            Am
But we can't be at home for three days till we get itchy feet

    D                                        G
And people always ask, "When are you gonna retire?"

         C           G              C
But your people have always been my people

    F               G               C
And you have always gone wherever I go

F                 G            C            Am
And when it's all over, I hope we will go together

  F                     G         C
I don't want you to be alone, you know
[Out-Chorus]
    F      G     C
And I love you tonite

F                G                C
Even more than I loved you in the sixties

    F      G           C     Am
And I know that we are right

D7                              G
Even more than I knew it in the seventies

    F     G          C
Oh, baby, ain't we a sight?

    F              G                   C
Can you believe we made it through the eighties?

    F                  G
And will we make the millennium?

         C     Am
Well, we might

F      G     C    F G C
I love you tonite
