C  D  Em  Em  C / G /  2/4D /  4/4G  G  

C              G          D       G
Love is like a penny in a wishing well
       C       G          D        G
It's a hand to hold and a story to tell
    C            G           G      Em
And every time I think about love I see
  C          G           D       G
A picture of you looking back at me

         C        G        D         G
Well I'd pick you up in my old man's car
   C           G        D           G
We wouldn't go fast, we wouldn't go far
    C             G        D        Em
And sitting right there in my front seat
             C         G         D    G
You were the prettiest thing I'd ever seen

[Chorus]
C    G    D  G  Em
Time goes by so fast
              C     G  D     G    C
And when it's gone, it don't come back
           C     G    D     G    Em              C
If I could leave this world with just one memory
          C          G           D       G
It'd be a picture of you looking back at me

       C/G           G         D/G      G
Well I promised your daddy I'd have you home
         C/G              G             D/G               G
And we'd swing out on the porch 'til he turned the lights on
    C/G            G          G/B  D    Em
And underneath the moon and a mil- lion stars
           C       G/B           D/F#     G
Is where I stole a kiss, and you stole my heart

[Chorus]
C/G  G    D/G G  Em
Time goes by so fast
              C/E   G/E D          C
And when it's gone, it don't come back
           C     G/B  D          Em       D      C
If I could leave this world with just one memory
          C          G/B         D/A     G
It'd be a picture of you looking back at me

[Chorus]
C/G  G    D/G G  Em
Time goes by so fast
              C/E   G/E C/E   D    C
And when it's gone, it don't come back
           C     G/B  D/F#  D/A  Em       D      C
If I could leave this world with just one memory
          C          G/B         D/A         G
It'd be a picture of you looking back --- at me
