Before you ask    her, let me tell you 'bout my girl
        C#m                                 Asus2
She's a Fourth of July firework, and she'll light up your whole world
           E5                   Bsus

And if she chooses you, then that makes you the luckiest on Earth
 
 
[Chorus 2]
         A                                    Bsus
Will you build her up, don't let her down and never try to steal her crown?
  E                E/D#                 C#m
Believe in all the dreams she's chasin' after?
         A                                      Bsus
Will you give her wings and let her fly? 'Cause if you do, she'll touch the sky
         E              E/D#                C#m
Will you always let her know that her voice matters?

And always be her happy ever after?
         A                                  Bsus
Will you let that ring remind you that even when the hard times find you,

It's the promises we keep that really matter
