Verse 1
  Dm       Dm#7       Dm7     Dm6 
If I could save time in a bottle  
    Gm6                          Bridge (or A7)
The first thing that I'd like to do 
  Dm       Dm7             Bb      Gm7   Dm
Is to save every day 'til eternity passes away 
        Gm            Bridge (or A7)
Just to spend them with you.

Verse 2

If I could make days last forever,
If words could make wishes come true
I'd save every day like a treasure and then again
I would spend them with you.

Chorus
          D          Dmaj7          
But there never seems to be enough time 
   D6                 D                 G      G7    Em7  A7  Bridge
To do the things you want to do once you find them.
          D          Dmaj7          
I've looked around enough to know that 
   D6           D                 G      G7    Em7  A7  Bridge
your the one I want to go through time with.

Verse 3

If I had a box just for wishes 
and dreams that had never come true.
The box would be empty except for the memory of
how they were answered by you.
