Forevermore    (video)    (intro)    (midi)

 

        C                              G

1. I wake with the dawn, something is wrong,

               Am                                              F

    then I hear you breathing softly by my side.

                 D                                           C

    And I know that I was dreaming of a time that may come,

              Dm                                          Am    - G

    when you would be no longer in my life.

 

        C                       G

2. I slip out of bed, I go downstairs,

           Am                                           F

    still troubled by the power of the dream.

                 D                                               C

    And I know that I don't say it quite as much as I should

          Dm                                                G

    the way I feel and what you mean to me.

 

                    C                           F

You are my lover, you are my friend,

                   C                     G

you are my life to the very end.

                        C                                  F

You bring me comfort, you keep me warm,

                    Dm                               G      - G7

you give me hope, you make me strong.

                         C                         F

You take me away to a distant shore,

                    Dm                         G  - G7              C       - F

and it's with you that I want to stay        forevermore.

 

             C                                 G

2. You go out at night, you're looking so good,

                Am                                         F

    people turning as you walk into the room.

                   D                                               C

    When I stand beside you I can feel the pride in my heart,

           Dm                                           G

    to know that you are here with me tonight.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                    C                           F

You are my lover, you are my friend,

you are my life to the very end.

you give me hope, you make me strong.
