  G              F#m7-5   B7       Em
I can't remember when you weren't there,

Dm7    Dm7/G   Cm7     D9          Bm7     D7
When I didn't care for any one but you. 

    G                       F#m7-5 B7        Em
I swear. We've been through everything there is, 

              Dm7  Dm7/G      Cm7
Can't imagine anything we've missed,

               G           Am7             D7sus4  D7
Can't imagine anything the two of us can't do.

            G            Em           Am7          D9        D7      Bm7
Through the years you've never let me down, you've turned my life around,

     Em                 Am7                 D7sus4 D7
The sweetest thing I've found I've found in you.

            Bm         E7-9         Am7        D9        D7          Bm7
Through the years I've never been afraid, I've loved the life we've made,

                      Cm7         Bm7       Am7  D9              Intro
And I'm so glad I've stayed right here with you. Through the years.

I can't remember what I used to do,
Who I trusted who I listened to before.
I swear.
You've taught me everything I know.
Can't imagine needing someone so,
But through the years it seems to me I need you more and more. 

Chorus2: 
Same chords with Chorus

Through the years, through all the good and bad, I know how much we've had,
I've always been so glad to be with you.
Through the years, it's better every day. You've kissed my tears away,
As long as it's okay I'll stay with you. Through the years.

Chorus3:
All Chords in Chorus +1 fret high

Through the years, when everything went wrong, together we were strong,
I know that I belong right here with you. 
Through the years, I never had a doubt, we'd always work things out,
I've learned what life's about, by loving you...
Through the years.
