[Verse 1]
D             G     D               G       D    G             D   G
 Sounds like a scene from the silver screen; yeah that's how it was
D             G                 D               G         D
 Love doesn't always look like a picture perfect storybook
        G            D    G
 Ah, but sometimes it does


[Verse 2]
D          G             D                G                   D 
 Standing beside her, the stars shine even brighter, and for a moment
G                  D   G   D     G   D
 All the world was, all the world was still
                G                   D                  G
 And I knew we belonged together the moment my eyes met hers
               Em               D         Em             A              
 And I thought, nothin’ lasts forever, but maybe this one will


[Chorus]
  A    D           G    D      A              D           G
 A deep breath, and baby steps, that's how the whole thing starts
       A    Bm   G               Em     A         D    G    D G D G   D G D
 It's a long slow beautiful dance to the beat of a heart


[Verse 3]
D                   G              D                G                D
 The world starts to spin again you learn things you didn't know then
D             G                 D
 Feels like the bloom is off the rose
D                 G                  D              G         
 But you weather a few storms and you pull out a few thorns
    Em           D      G         A
 And together the garden grows and grows


[Chorus]
A      D           G    D      A              D           G
 A deep breath, and baby steps, that's how the whole thing starts
       A    Bm   G               Em     A         D    G D G 
 It's a long slow beautiful dance to the beat of a heart
D            G               D        G      D G D G   D G D G   D
 It's a long, slow, beautiful dance my friend


[Verse 4]
D            G           D       G
 The house is filled with so much love
D         G                    D    
 We've got more than enough for two
              G              D        G
 So we've been thinkin’ about havin’ a baby
          Em                   D              G                A
 I know it sounds crazy, but it seems like the natural thing to do


[Chorus]
A      D           G    D      A              D           G
 A deep breath, and baby steps, that's how the whole thing starts
       A    Bm   G               Em     A         D     G D G    D G D G 
 It's a long slow beautiful dance to the beat of a heart
