THE WAY YOUNG LOVERS DO- Van Morrison

     Am
We strolled through fields all wet with rain

And back along the lane again
  Dm                    Am
There in the sunshine, in the sweet summertime
    E                     Am
The way that young lovers do

I kissed you on the lips once more
And we said goodbye at your front door
In the nighttime, yeah that's the right time
To feel the way that young lovers do

CHORUS:
 C                  G
Then we sat on our own star and dreamed
        C                         F                  E
Of the way that we were and the way that we wanted to be
 C                  G
Then we sat on our own star and dreamed
        C                   F                  E
Of the way that I was for you and you were for me

And then we danced the night away
And turn into each other and say
I love you, I love you
The way that young lovers do

CHORUS, LAST VERSE
Lovers do, lovers do, doot doot do-be-do
