Verse 1:

	                F
	Wouldn't it be nice if we were older
	                 Bb             Gm7
	And we wouldn't have to wait so long
	    C7              F
	And wouldn't it be nice to live together
	                Bb              Gm7   C7
	In the kind of world where we belong

	Dm7/A                      Cm7/F
	You know it's gonna make it that much better
	Dm7/A                         Am7     Gm7    C7
	When we can say goodnight and stay together

Verse 2:

	Wouldn't it be nice if we could wake up
	In the morning when the day is new
	And after having spent the day together
	Hold each other close the whole night through

	What happy times together we'd be spending
	I wish that every kiss was never ending

	                    F
	Oh, wouldn't it be nice

	 v   v   v   v     v   v   v   v

Bridge (guitar repeats first two bars of intro):

	Dmaj7       Gmaj7                                F#m7           Bm7
	Maybe if we think and wish and hope and pray it might come true
	Dmaj7            Gmaj7                          F#m7       Bm7
	Maybe then there wouldn't be a single thing we couldn't do
	             F#m7                 Bm7
	We could be married (we could be married)
	                 F#m7                C7
	                 - last two bars of intro -
	And then we'd be happy (then we'd be happy)
	                  F
	Oh, wouldn't it be nice

Coda:

	(slow down)

	Dm7/A                         Cm7/F
	You know it seems the more we talk about it
	Dm7/A                     Am7      Gm7
	It only makes it worse to live without it
	         Am7    Gm7       C7
	But lets talk about it

	(resume original tempo)

	                F
	Wouldn't it be nice

	Good night, baby
	Sleep tight, baby... [fade]
