[Intro]
| A A6 | A7 A6 |
 
[Verse 1]
    A          A6        A7   A6
The years have passed so quickly
A               A6   E      E6
 One thing I've understood
A     C#7  F#m      A/E
 I am only learning
D            E          | A A6 | A7
 To tell the trees from wood    (break)
 
[Bridge]
  A                  E
I know what's coming down
      D                      A
And I know where it's coming from
      A  A/G       D/F#           E
And I know and I'm sorry - Yes, I am
      D/F#        E        | A A6 | A7
But I never could speak my mind   (break)
 
[Bridge]
      A                 E
And I know just how you feel
      D                    A
And I know now what I have done
      A  A/G       D/F#            E
And I know and I'm guilty - Yes, I am
      D/F#        E         | A A6 | A7 A6 |
But I never could read your mind
 
[Verse 2]
A           A6    A7 A6
I know what I was missing
A           A6       E      E6
 But now my eyes can see
A        C#7     F#m      A/E
 I put myself in your place
D       E       | A A6 | A7
 As you did for me
 
[Chorus]
   D E                     |  A   C#7 | F#m  A/E |
Today I love you more than yesterday
      D   E                     | A C#7 | F#m
Right now, I love you more right now    (break)
 
[Bridge]
      A                  E
Now I know what's coming down
      D                      A
I can feel where it's coming from
      A  A/G            D/F#           E
And I know it's getting better all the time
      D/F#        E         | A A6 | A7
As we share in each other's minds   (break)
 
[Chorus]
   D E                     |  A   C#7 | F#m  A/E |
Today I love you more than yesterday
      D   E                     | A C#7 | F#m
Right now, I love you more right now    (break)
