capo=2
[intro]1 D G6sus2/B Em7 Asus4 A
nine to five - at the five and dime checkin out - while doin’ time farming life - it wud’nt mine breakin’ out - it [ain’t] a crime
left this town - when I was young had my dreams - that I’d begun chasin’ skirts - and chasin’ fun way too old - way too young
[intro]1
showin’ up - another day found a voice - had [more] to say full time - work and play finding me - better way
saw you there - made me sing flowers all - I would bring then there was - that other thing brought you - a wedding ring A
[chorus1] forever never had us both belong and [leavin] here just [always] seemed so wrong believin’ in and singin’ our same song Em7 Asus4 I’m [still] keepin’ faith, and hold’in on Em7 Asus4 this [life’s] too short, and [forever] ain’t that long
[intro]1 A
three kids - you wanted more growin up - and out the door passin’ down - the family lore this life - that’s [what] it’s for
times pass - and we forget what we lost - and what we get livin life - with no regrets how it ends - I’d never bet
[intro]1
never good - to [second] guess kept my faith, more or less seein’ you - with all your friends always loved - you in that dress
trying to - forget all that what it was - it [won’t] come back time blows - us down the tracks ain’t that - a natural fact A
[chorus2] forever never kept it’s promise to to have and hold and love me like you do and now I’m left empty through and through Em7 Asus4 I’m [still] keepin’ faith, and hold’in on Em7 Asus4 this [life’s] too short, and [forever] ain’t that long
[intro]*1 A
[single strum] now it’s time - to say goodbye sweet Jesus - please abide keepin’ yours - and keepin’ mine look you up - on the other side [end]
