Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 It was only a smile but my heart it went wild
and  I wasn't  expecting that
just  a delicate kiss,  anyone  could've missed
I  wasn't  expecting that
Did  I misread  the sign?  Your hand slipped  into mine
I wasn't  expecting that
You  spent the  night in my bed,  you woke  up and you said
"Well,  I wasn't  expecting that"
 I thought love wasn't meant  to last,
I  thought you  were just passing through
If  I ever get the  nerve to ask
What  did I get right to deserve somebody  like you?
 I wasn't expecting that
It  was only  a word,  it was almost mis-heard
'Cause  I wasn't  expecting that
But  it came  without fear,  a month turned  into a year
And  I wasn't  expecting that
I  thought love wasn't meant  to last,
I  thought you  were just passing through
If  I ever get the  nerve to ask
What  did I get right to deserve somebody  like you?
 I wasn't expecting that
  Isn't it strange how a life can be changed
in  the flicker  of the sweetest smile
 We were married in spring
You  know I wouldn't change a thing
Without  an innocent kiss, what  a life I'd have missed,
If  you'd  not took a chance on  a little  romance
When  I wasn't  expecting that
Time doesn't  take long,  three kids  up and gone
And  I wasn't  expecting that
And  when the  nurses they came,  said its come  back again
I  wasn't  expecting that
Then you  closed your eyes,  took my heart  by surprise
And  I wasn't  expecting that
