Intro: Es As Es | 
       cm Bb As 2x

Es/G           As               Es/G    Bb
 He packed his bags when he was just 18
Es/G      As                    Es/Bb    Bb
 To see a world he thought he'd never seen
       cm           Bb
But he knew when he met her
     Es/G        As
That she was the girl
fm                 Bb
 He'd been waiting for

         fm               Es/c           Es/Bb       Bb
And each night they spent talking on the front porch swing
        Es/G                   As
Like it came straight out of a movie scene
        cm                Es/G           Es/Bb      Bb
But one night she stepped out as the sun began to set
             Es/G                         As          Bb
And when she got to the porch she found a letter that read


Es          Es/G           As   Bb
 You're the only girl I'll ever love
Es          Es/G            As       Bb   b-
 And I'd do anything not to give you up
           cm   cm/Bb    As
If I could only stop the world
            As       Bb    cm
When you're standing by my side
        Es         Bb         As
See I'm having the time of my life
         Es         Bb         cm     Bb  As
Yes, I'm having the time of my life


The months went by it was their wedding day
A church on a hill, wedding bells rang away
She looked like a princess
All dressed up in pearls
It was her proudest day

And he stood all alone in a darkened church hallway
And he got down on his knees and he started to pray
He thanked the Lord for his family and the perfect bride
But he couldn't hold back what he was feelin' inside
And he said

She's the only girl I'll ever love
And I'd do anything not to give her up
If I could only stop the world
When she's standing by my side
See, I'm having the time of my life
         Es         Bb         Es    cm  Es  cm  | cm Bb As
Yes, I'm having the time of my life

      Es                          As
Forty years went by and she lived most of God's plan
          Es                         As
She stood alone in an attic, wedding dress in her hand
        Es                         As
And she held an old letter written so long ago
          fm    Es/G  As
But she'd never forget it
As            Bb   b-
No matter how old

           cm                Bb
And as she turned to put the dress 
    Es/G        As
And pack up the years
       fm              Es/G
He was standing in the doorway
         As           Bb
With his eyes full of tears
And he held her

'Cause you're the only girl I'll ever love
And I'd do anything not to give you up
If I could only stop the world
When you're standing by my side
See I'm having the time of my life
Yes, I'm having the time of my 

Es         Es/G           As   Bb
You're the only girl I'll ever love


Have fun with this one. I played this on piano. I don't know how it sounds on guitar.
