The Story of my LifeĀ 

The Story Of My Life   (Neil Diamond)
 
Intro:  C  G  C
The story of my [C] life, is very plain to [F] read;
It starts the day you [G] came, and ends the day you [C] leave.
The story of my [C] life, begins and ends with [F] you;   The names are still the [G] same, and the story's still the [C] truth.
 
And [Am] I was alone, you found me waiting, and [G] made me your own;
[Am] I was afraid that somehow [G] I never could be,  the [F] man that you wanted of [G] me.
 
You're the story of my [C] life, and every word is [F] true;   Each chapter sings your [G] name, each page begins with [C] you.
It s the story of our [C] times, and never letting [F] go;   And if I die [G] today, I wanted you to [C] know.
 
[Am] Stay with me here, share with me, care with me;  [G] Stay and be near, and [Am] when it began.
I'd lie awake every [G] night, just [F] knowing somewhere deep [G] inside;  That our love [F] affair just might [G] write.
 
The story of my [C] life, is very plain to [F] read; It starts the day you [G] came, and ends the day you [C] leave. [F] [C]
