Wouldn't it be nice if we were older?
G6 Bm7 Em
Then we wouldn't have to wait so long.
A9 D
And wouldn't it be nice to live together,
G6 Bm7 Em7 A9
In the kind of world where we be -long?

You know it's gonna make it that much better,
Bm7 F#m7 Em7 A9
When we can say goodnight and stay... to-gether.

[Verse 2]

D
Wouldn't it be nice if we could wake up,
G6 Bm7 Em
In the morning, when the day is new?
A9 D
And after having spent the day together;
G6 Bm7 Em7 A9
Hold each other close, the whole night through.

[Bridge 2]

Bm7 C/D
What happy times together we'd be spending,

I wish that every kiss was ne...ver ending.

We could be married, (we could be married),
