[Intro 1]
[G][A]
[D][G][A]
Down by the [G]boathouse at Shaker

[Verse 1]
[G]
[A]Lake
[G]When there wasn't nothing
but love to [A]make,
[G]They were two young lov[A]ers wishing
on the stars above.
[G][A]

[Verse 2]
Well, they [G]carved their initials
in an old birch [A]tree[G]
With a heart and an arrow
and a 'sixty-three.
[A]You [G]You had to be blind not to see
[A]It was a p[D]erf[G]ect love.
[A]

[Verse 3]
It was a per[D]fect [G]love.
Ooh, yeah, [A]yeah.
Well, they [G]worked one summer together
at the '64 World's [A]Fair.[G]
They met Robert Kennedy [A]there.[D][G]
Well, that [A]was
Right before the fall.
[G]

[Verse 4]
[A]
And they [G]saved up a little bit of money for his career,
[A]
And they [G]talked about the future
[D]underneath [G]the giant [A]sphere.
And all [G]around them, the little
voices [A]were singing
It's a small world after [G]all.
Yes it is, small [A]world after [G]all.
[A]And it was[G] perfect love.
[A]

[Verse 5]
It was a [Bm]perfect love.
Ooh, yeah, [G]yeah.
(Under the moon and stars above
it was [A]a perfect love)

[Verse 6]
Now they were [Bm]dizzy from dan
[G]cing [Bm]on Rockaway Beach.
[G]They came to Rockawa[A]y.
Yeah, and [Bm]everything [G]they dreamed
of was [Bm]still [G]within reach
Dream[A]ing,
dreaming as the years roll [G]by,
Like they always [A]do.[G]

[Verse 7]
Well, they had their share of [G]hard
times, [A]too.
[G]But whatever they were,
[A]they never let it get [D]them [G]down.

[Verse 8]
[G]Now, [A]the[G]y just go walking
down [A]a country [G]lane;
See the leaves changing in the [A]misty rain.
And [Bm]only [G]one thing re[D]mains the same,
[A]who[G]a. Ooh[D], y[G]eah, yea[A]h.
