Werner-Carstens

"If I should fall behind" by Bruce Springsteen. Easy melody, 4 chords and great lyrics. It worked every time at every wedding I have played.

Ok, I'm not gonna be a smart-arse..........if I were in your shoes, and if I was gonna sing ANY song for my wife............it would most certainly be.........

(ok, I am a bit of a romantic...............)

"THE WIND BENEATH MY WINGS"- and definitely the BETTE MIDLER version......... ? I'm sure you could learn that quite quickly, and all the best!

I give her all my love

And if you saw my love
G A
You'd love her too

I love her

Em Bm
She gives me everything
Em Bm
And tenderly
Em Bm
The kiss my lover brings
G A
She brings to me
D
And I love her

Bm D Bm A
A love like ours, could never die
Bm A A+D
As long as I have you near me

I know this love of mine
G A
Will never die
D
And I love her.

Next question? ?

That one looks good, now where can I get a copy so I can actually hear how it goes ???

Thanks for the pointers chaps ... maybe I'll pop the Vid on here for you guys after the wedding ?

Tokai-SA

Here you go.

Squonk

Have I told you lately that I love You - Van Morrison (Rod Stewart's unplugged one is also quite good)

The lyrics are down to earth and not too cheesy 8)

I think I would have sung this song at my wedding if I had the courage :-[

Cool thanks, nice words!

Any others that I can try before I decide on which one to go for?

singemonkey

I think TokaiSa's onto a winner there. You can't fight Lennon/McCartney.

True!

Where can I get this track on MP3?

Another of my all-time favourite love songs, and quite simple to play, but awesome............

Hahahaha. Sean, that's my wife's favourite song, ?.....

and also........"Because you loved me" by Celine Dion, but that's NOT an easy song to play........

IceCreamMan

Led Zep's Thank You song !!

Cant go wrong and will bring the house down and the lyrics are incredible
