[INTRO]~
A A D D
A D A A
[VERSE]~
A
Once upon a time there was a boy who loved a girl!
D
She was absolutely perfect in an imperfect world!
A
Forever's a promise,..!! it's more than just a word!
D
They meant it to each other,..!! of that they were sure!
A
He came home to her crying at the top of the stairs!
D
He asked,..!! "baby what's the matter!!..?" as he pushed back her hair!
A
She said honey I'm sick!
E
What the hell did I do!!..?
D A
And with hate in his heart,..!! he screamed at the moon!
[CHORUS]~
A D
Please don't take her away from me,..!!
A D F#m
She truly is everything,..!! that I have left!
F#m C#m E
As selfish as it may seem,..!!
A
I need you here with me!
[VERSE]~
A
Day after day,..!! he stood by her side,..!!
D A
While Sleepless in Seattle,..!! played through his mind!
A
Forever seems longer when you've got your whole life,..!!
D A
But forever is forgotten where the end draws the line!
A
She said "honey just listen,..!! listen to me,..!!
D A
We should be together in a boat on the sea!"
A
He held back his tears,..!! and spoke quietly,..!!
D A
"When I picture forever,..!! it's you here with me!"
[CHORUS]~
A D
Please don't take her away from me,..!!
A D F#m
She truly is everything,..!! that I have left!
F#m A E
As selfish as it may seem,..!!
A
I need you here with me
[CHORUS]~
A D
And please just let her go painlessly!
A
Let her drift on in her dreams!
D F#m
Just don't make her feel a thing!
F#m A E
Just try and get some sleep!
A
This angel deserves her wings!
[BREAK]~
A D
As leaves fall from the trees,..!!
F#m
She became a memory,..!!
F#m D
To a man who lost everything-ing!
A D
Forever doesn't mean anything!
F#m
Just a promise that we take!
D
But there's hope for you and me!
[OUTRO]~
A E A
She looked to the sky and with one final breath,..!!
C# D A
Said "take this heart from out of my chest!
A
Carry it far with the love you possess!
D A
I'm sorry my boy,..!! but I tried my best!
