Some Things Are Meant To [B]e

When you were first born, not an hour old, I told Marmee...
Beth is mine!
Everyone has someone special in the world, and I have you;
my sweet Beth. Give me a task to do.

| [G] . /[F#] . | [Em7] . [G]/[F#] . | [G] . /[F#] . | [C9]/[E] . [G]/[D] . | 
Let's pretend we're riding on a kite. Let's imagine 
| [C9] . [D] . | [G] . [D] . | [G] . /[F#] . | [C9]/[E] . [G]/[D] . |  [C9] . [D] . | 
we're flying through the air!
We'll ascend until we're out of sight. Light as paper, we'll soar!
| [G] .  [D] . | [Bm7] . [Em7] . | [Am7] . [D] . | [Bm7] . [Em7] . | 
Let's be wild, up high above the sand, feel the wind, 
| [Am7] . [D] . | [G]/[F] . [C9]/[E] . | [Cm9]/[Eb] . [G]/[D] . | [Am7] . [G]/[B] . | [D] . . . |
the world at our command.
Let's enjoy the view, and never land.
Floating far from the shore.
| [G2] . [D]/[F#] . | [C]/[E] . [Am7] . | . . [D7] . | [Gmaj7] . [C]/[D] [D7] | 
Some things are meant to be, the clouds moving fast and free.
The sun on a silver sea.
A sky that's bright and blue.
| [G2] . [D]/[F#] . | [C]/[E] . [Am7] . | . . [D7] . | [G] . /[F#] . | [C]/[E] . [D] . | 
And some things will never end.
The thrill of our magic ride.
The love that I feel inside for you.
| [G2] .  [D]/[F#] . | [C]/[E] . [G2]/[D] . | [C] . [D7] . | [G2] . [D] . | 
We'll climb high beyond the break of day.
Sleep on stardust, and dine on bits of moon
| [G2]. [D]/[F#] .| [C]/[E] .[G2]/[D] . | [C] . [D7] . | [G2] . [D] . | 
You and I will find the Milky Way.
We'll be mad, and explore.
| [Bm7] . [Em7] . | [Am7] . [D] . | [Bm7] . [Em7] . | [Am7] . | 
We'll recline aloft upon the breeze.
Dart about, sail on with windy ease.
| [D]/[F#] /[E] [D] .  | [G]/[F] . [C9]/[E] . | [Cm9]/[Eb] . [G]/[D] . | [Am7] . [G9]/[B] . | 
Pass the days doing only as we please, that's what living is for.
| [F2] . [F] . | [Cmaj7]/[E] . . . | [Cm]/[Eb] . . . |
| [G] . /[F#] . | [C9]/[E]. [Am7] . | . . [C2]/[D] [D] | [D]/[G] [G] | 
Some things are meant to be, the tide turning endlessly,
the way it takes hold of me, no matter what I do,
| [C6]/[D] [Cmaj7]/[D] [C]/[D] [D] | [G2] [G] [D]/[F#] . | [C]/[E] . [Am7] . | . . [D] . |
but some things will never die, the promise of who you are,
the memories when I am far from you.
| [Em7] . [G]/[D] . |  [A]/[E] . . . | [G]/[D] . [Cmaj7]/[D] . | [G]/[D] . . . | 
All my life, I've lived for loving you; 
| [D]/[C]  [C] . . | [D]/[C] [C] . . | [G] . /[F#] . | [C9]/[E] . [G]/[F#] . | [G]
let me go now.
