On a park bench one sunny afternoon

G7 C
Sat a young boy and a girl about seventeen

C7 F
As we stood so closely by watched them hold each other's hands

G7 C
On their faces love had written we're making plans

F C
Then he said to her you're my guiding light

D7 G7
Then she said to him you make my whole world seem so bright

C F

C C7

F

G7 F C
