Every hour, every day

A kiss or laugh, every photograph

Every sunny holiday

        Em            D             C        D
They're living sun as soul never to grow old

        Am             D             G
When we partied and we sang 'til the early hours

          Em            Am                D
Stumblin' home, hand in hand in the after glow

Em            D           C             D
Nothing was rehearsed, so beautifully observed

        G                C            G
And the thrill is still alive oh, my, my
Listen, baby [Chorus]

I saw you on the dance floor

Dancing to that George Michael

I was envious of the guy that you were with
Oh, yeah

You were crazy old dance

            G
But I would not take no for an answer

With tongue-in-cheek, you reluctantly agreed
[Verse 3]

These precious memories

     Em      Am           D
Of hotels in New York and Paris

     G                Em
Long summer nights in Central Park

Am                     D
Rides in a horse-drawn carriage

    Em          D
The ups and the downs

        C                 D
We made every second count

        G             Em            D
And you still make my heart go boom-boom-boom
[Interlude]
                                            G Em

            Em D C D  G D
Ah-hah, yeah

I saw you on the dance floor

G
Dancing to that George Michael

      C                                Em
I was envious of the guy that you were with
Oh, yeah

You were crazy old dance

            G
But I would not take no for an answer

     A                                 D
With tongue-in-cheek, you reluctantly agreed
[Verse 4]
                        G
These precious memories

        Em      Am               D
That we made, remember our first date

         G                   Em
You were nervous, but fine until you

Am                      D
Knocked over a glass of wine

          Em            D
You said "Ooh, baby I'm sorry"

        C                D
I said "Honey, don't you worry"

          G                  C              G
"You were gorgeous then, and still gorgeous now"

           Em                 D
You said, "Oopsie daisey, I'm sorry"

         C                    D
I said, "Ooh, baby, don't you worry

         G                  C              G
You were gorgeous then, and still gorgeous now"
