[Verse]B G#m E B F#
August afternoon, I can picture you, walking with your father at your side
B G#m E B F#
In the summer heat, California speaks, softly like she's making up her mind
G#m E
And now, as I stand beside you I say
[Chorus]B E G#m F#
Baby, isn't it crazy that we are born only to die?
B E
Oh but lately, I've been counting my stars
G#m F#
‘Cause I will spend my whole life loving you
[Verse]B G#m E B F#
Through your shining eyes, sweet like Jeffrey Pines, I pretended I could read your thoughts
B G#m E B F#
Now it's just the truth, seems our hearts have fused, soldered like the gold your sister brought
G#m E
And how am I lucky enough to say
[Chorus]B E G#m F#
Baby, isn't it crazy that we are born only to die?
B E
Oh but lately, I've been counting my stars
G#m F#
‘Cause I will spend my whole life loving you
