1)
D                                      G                       A7                D
It was thirty years and at least one more, more, more, more
                                     G                 A7                  D
When I first espied the girl I adore, adore, adore, adore.
                                                   G                     A7           D
I watched as you walked to the shore that day, day, day, day

Chorus
G                                       A                     
I watched as you walked, feet dancing in sand,
G                                          D                
Oh Lord you are beautiful, I pray for your hand.
G                                          A         A      A     D      
Oh Lord you are beautiful, I pray / for / your / hand.

D                                        G                        A7           D   
I always dreamt that we’d one day be two, two, two, two
                                      G                 A7           D
Two hearts forever u-ni-ted as one, one, one, one
                                           G                    A7           D
Laughing and singing, we lay in the sun, sun, sun, sun.
Chorus
3)       

D                                        G                         A7          D
Each summer as the sun heats up our day, day, day, day
                                  G                           A7            D
I just couldn’t wait to run down that trail, trail, trail, trail
                                      G                           A7         D
When I did see you my heart leapt for joy, joy, joy, joy
Chorus
4)       

D                               G                          A7               D
Smiling at everyone that you did pass, pass, pass, pass
                                  G                   A7           D
Slices of watermelon on your tray, tray, tray, tray
                                                G                           A7          D
Your smile & sweet voice ere’ brightens our day, day, day, day

Chorus  

               G                                         A        A      A      D     
{repeat} Oh Lord you are beautiful, I pray / for / your / hand.
