Whistle 
8 ~~ 7 -6 ~ -5 6 5 ~ 6 -7 7 
 1    2   3   3  -3   1   -7 5
Some-day I'm gon-na write
-1   2  3  3  -3  1   -7 5
The sto-ry of my life
 -1   2   3  3    3   -3   3   3
I'll tell a-bout the night we met
-3   4  4    4    -5    6   6
And how my heart can't for-get
-5   4   3    -2   -1 1    8 7
The way you smiled at me

 1   2    3    3   -3  1    -7 5
I’d like the world to know 
-1   2  3  3  -3  1    -7 5
The sto-ry of my life
-1  2   3    3    3    -3   3   3
The mo-ment when your lips met mine
-2   4     4   4  -5   6   6
And that first ex-cit-ing time
-5  4   3   -2   -1 1   6 -7 7
I held you close to me

 4  -3   4   4    4   4
The sor-row when our love 
-5  6 -5   4  4
was break-ing up
 4  -3   4  4  4  4   4  -3 3
The mem-'ry of a bro-ken heart
 4   -3  4  4    4   4  -5 6-5  5  5
Then la-ter on, the joy of mak-ing up
-5  -5 -5  -5  -5  -5 -3*3
Nev-er nev-er more to part

   1     2    3    3   -3 1   -7 5
There's one thing left to do
-1  2   3   3   -3     1   -7 5
Be-fore my sto-ry's through
 -1   2  3   3    3  -3  3   3
I've got to take you for my wife
-2  4   4  4  -5 6   6
So the sto-ry of my life
-5    4   -3  -2   -1   1
Can start and end with you

The sor-row when our love

The mem-'ry of a bro-ken heart
 4   -3  4  4    4   4  -5 6-5  5  5
Then la-ter on, the joy of mak-ing up
-5  -5 -5  -5  -5  -5 -3*3
Nev-er nev-er more to part

   1     2    3    3   -3 1   -7 5
