[Verse 1]
               F
Wouldn't it be nice if we were older

                Bb              Gm7
And we wouldn't have to wait so long

    C7             F
And wouldn't it be nice to live together

               Bb               Gm7   C7
In the kind of world where we belong
[Bridge]
Dm7/A                        Eb/F
 You know it's gonna make it that much better

Dm7/A                          Am7    Gm7     C7
 When we can say goodnight and stay together
[Verse 2]
               F
Wouldn't it be nice if we could wake up

               Bb              Gm7
In the morning when the day is new

    C7           F
And after having spent the day together

                Bb                    Gm7      C7
Hold each other close the whole night through
[Bridge]
Dm7/A                      Eb/F
 What happy times together we'd be spending

Dm7/A                       Am7   Gm7     C7
 I wish that every kiss was never ending

                   F
Oh, wouldn't it be nice

[Middle 8] (guitar repeats first two bars of intro)
Dmaj7        Gmaj7                               F#m7            Bm7
 Maybe if we think and wish and hope and pray it might come true

Dmaj7             Gmaj7                         F#m7        Bm7
 Baby, then there wouldn't be a single thing we couldn't do

            F#m7                 Bm7
We could be married (we could be married)

                 F#m7                C7
                 - last two bars of intro -
And then we'd be happy (then we'd be happy)
                   F
Oh, wouldn't it be nice
[Coda] (slow down)
Dm7/A                          Eb/F
 You know it seems the more we talk about it

Dm7/A                      Am7     Gm7
 It only makes it worse to live without it

          Am7   Gm7       C7
But let's talk about it
(resume original tempo)
               F
Wouldn't it be nice
Good night, baby Sleep tight, baby... (fade)
