Chord Anniversary Song by Eva Cassidy

C Cmaj7 today has been a special day Am G an anniversary a request C Cmaj7 that you play your piano Am G as the evening sun slowly sets Dm G i never thought i’d get this old dear Em Am never had a reason to live so long Dm G and the lord’s been like my shadow Em Am even when i was wrong F D G no i never thought it would turn out this way C Cmaj7 a birthday with apologies Am G for all the tears and regrets C Cmaj7 and i’ve always saved your poetry Am G for these years when you forget Dm G i never thought i’d get this old dear Em Am never had a reason to live so long Dm G and the lord’s been like my shadow Em Am even when i was wrong F D G G7 no i never thought it would turn out this way C E so sing with me softly Am C as the day turns to night F and later i’ll dream Em Dm of paradise with you G C i love you and good night
