G Em C D
Ouhh ouhhh
[Verse 1]
G
August afternoon
Em
I can picture you
C G D
Walking with your father at your side
G
In the summer heat
Em
California speaks
C G D
Softly like she's making up her mind
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C D
And now, as I stand beside you I say
[Chorus]
G Em C D
Baby, isn't it crazy that we are born only to die?
G Em
Oh, but lately, I've been counting my stars
C D
'Cause I will spend my whole life loving you
[Verse 2]
G
Through your shining eyes
Em
Sweet like Jeffrey Pines
C G D
I pretended I could read your thoughts
G
Now it's just the truth
Em
Seems our hearts have fused
C G D
Soldered like the gold your sister brought
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C D
And how am I lucky enough to say
[Chorus]
G Em C D
Baby, isn't it crazy that we are born only to die?
G Em
Oh, but lately, I've been counting my stars
C D Em
'Cause I will spend my whole life loving you
[Hook]
C G D
Loving you, loving you, loving you
Em C G D*
Loving you, loving you, loving you, loving you
And I said
[Chorus]
G Em C D
Baby, isn't it crazy that we are born only to die?
G Em
Oh, but lately, I've been counting my stars
C D G
'Cause I will spend my whole life loving you
