[Verse 1]
They were Don their honeyGmoon
And the Dbride said to the Ggroom
I just Dcan’t forget the dream I had last Anight
I saw GJohn, Paul, George and ARingo
In the Bmchurchyard playinEg bingo
On the Ggravestones, this is Ahow the groom Dreplied
[Chorus 1]
(He said) Be here Gnow, be Awith me
Look inDto my eyes, D7kiss me
Make this a Gmoment we will Asavor
And we’ll Dput it aside foD7r later
We are Gyoung, our lives Abegun
But it Bmwill not last Eforever
There’ll be Gdays we're not Atogether
(So) be here Dnow
[Verse 2]
They were Din their middle Gyears
Pretty Ddeep in their Gcareers
And he Dcalled her from the plane in AAmsterdam
He said I just heard GJohn, Paul, George and ARingo
And that Bmdusty old hit Esingle on the Gmusak
It made me Awanna hold your Dhand
[Chorus 2]
(He said) Be here Gnow, be Awith me
Look Dinto my eyes, D7kiss me
Make this a Gmoment we will Asavor
And we’ll Dput it aside for D7later
Though our Ghearts still feel this Ahunger
We Bmwon’t get any Eyounger
From the Gstart our days are Anumbered
(So) Be here Dnow

It was Dafter visiting Ghours
And he’d Drearranged the Gflowers
And she Dhadn’t recognized him in a Aweek
And the Gnurses heard him Asing, hey
You got to Bmhide your love Eaway
And she Gopened up her Aeyes and began to Dspeak
[Chorus 3]
(She said) Be here Gnow, be Awith me
Look inDto my eyes, D7kiss me
Every Gbreath becomes a Atreasure
In my Dheart we’re young D7forever
