[G] It started out when Adam

Then it [D] Found you and me

It must be [C] written on a block of stone
Buried by sand in an ancient land
[G] Carved upon the side of the oldest [D] tree
It must be [C] more than just a dream come true
[C] Cause i believe the good Lord always [D] knew
[C] I was [D] meant to be with [G] you

[G] Standing here beside you
[D] In my heart I [C] know
[C] This love that we were [G] meant to share
[D] Began so long ago
[C] As sure as rain was [G] made to fall
[D] Mountains made to [C] stand
[C] I was born to be with [G] you
There was [D] nothing left to chance

Chorus

[C] From the beginning
[D] To the end of time
[C] I was to be your's
[D] You were to be mine
