C5                F5 
Someday I'm going to write 
    C5           F5 
The story of my life 
     C5              G5            F5                G5 
I'll tell about the night we met and how my heart can't forget 
    C5       F5     G5   C5  F5  C5 
The way you smiled at me 
 
I want the world to know 

The story of my life 

About the night your lips met mine and that first exciting time 

I held you close to me 
 

    F5                      C5 
The sorrow in our love was breakin' up 
    F5                  C5 
The mem'ry of a broken heart 
     F5                    F5 
Then later on, the joy of makin' up 
D5                   G5 
Never never more to part  
 
There's one thing left to do 
Before my story's through 
I've got to take you for my wife so the story of my life 
Can start and end with you 
 
Chorus 
 
There's one thing left to do 
Before my story's through 
I've got to take you for my wife 
So the story of my life 
Can start and end 
Can start and end 
Can start and end with you
