When I Said I Do (Clint Black & Lisa Hartman Black)

this is quite a beautiful song no matter how you play it. Great at weddings and aniversaries

Key of Bb (Capo 6th fret if you wish)

Verse 1
Bb                           F
These times are troubled and these times are good
              Eb
And they're always gonna be, they rise and they fall
Bb                  F
We take 'em all the way that we should
  Eb
Together you and me forsaking them all
Gm                    F
Deep in the night and by the light of day
   Eb
It always looks the same, true love always does
Bb                          F
And here by your side, or a million miles away
         Eb
Nothin's ever gonna change the way that I feel,
                                  Bb
The way it is, is the way that it was


Chorus
     Bb       F                  Cm            Eb             Bb
When I said I do, I meant that I will 'til the end of all time
                F                Ab
Be faithful and true, devoted to you
                     Eb                  Bb  F  Eb
That's what I had in mind when I said "I do"


Verse 2

     Bb                                     F
Well this old world keeps changin', and the world stays the same
    Eb
For all who came before, and it goes hand and hand
Bb                      F
Only you and I can undo all that we became
     Eb
That makes us so much more, than a woman and a man
Gm                        F
And after everything that comes and goes around
    Eb
Has only passed us by, here alone in our dreams
  Bb                             F
I know there's a lonely heart in every lost and found
       Eb
But forever you and I will be the ones
                           Bb
Who found out what forever means


Repeat Chorus


Bridge

Bb         D                        Gm                  C7
Truer than true, you know that I'll always be there for you
                    Eb                                Ebm
(Clint) That's what I had in mind, (Lisa) that's what I had in mind,

(Clint and Lisa [how sweet]) When I said "I do"
