Greatest Story Ever Told
-by Oliver James
Chords by Bekka Gardner

Intro: G-C9-G-C9
   G       Bm7            Cmaj7
Thank you for this moment
      G             Bm7          Cmaj7
I've gotta say how beautiful you are
   Am7               Bm7              Cmaj7
Of all the hopes and dreams I could've prayed for
                D-Dsus4-D
There you are

            G       Bm7   Cmaj7
If I could have one dance forever
        G        Bm7     Cmaj7
I would take you by the hand
 Am7                Bm7 Cmaj7
Tonight it's you and I together
    	D             D7  Dsus4
I'm so glad I'm your man

CHORUS:
          G               Bm7
And if I lived a thousand years you know
     Cmaj7
I never could explain
     G         Bm7                Cmaj7
The way I lost my heart to you that day
        G       Bm7           Em              Cmaj7
But if destiny decided I should look the other way
          Bm7                              Cmaj7
Then the world would never know the greatest story ever told
          Am7              D        G
And did I tell you that I love you tonight

G       Bm7      Cmaj7
I don't hear the music
          G      Bm7     Cmaj7
When I'm lookin' in your eyes
    Am7        Bm7           Cmaj7          D-Dsus4
But I feel the rhythm of your body close to mine

         G      Bm7          Cmaj7
It's the way we touch that sends me
         G         Bm7    Cmaj7
It's the way we'll always feel
     Am7               Bm7               Cmaj7
Your kiss, your pretty smile you know I'd die for
   D                D7 Dsus4
Oh baby, you're all I need


CHORUS 2:
         G                 Bm7
And if I lived a thousand years you know
     Cmaj7
I never could explain
    G             Bm7          Cmaj7
The way I lost my heart to you that day
        G        Bm7            Em             Cmaj7
But if destiny decided I should look the other way
          Am7                                 G         Em
Then the world would never know the greatest story ever told
          Am7              Bm7
And did I tell you that I love you
         Cmaj7                 Em
Just how much I really need you
        Am7                   D          Em-G-Cmaj7
Did i tell you that I love you tonight...
    Em-G-Em-Cmaj7
Tonight....
