G Em Cadd9
She said, "Forever's gonna be like this"
G Em Cadd9
Class ring promise and a shotgun kiss
G Em Cadd9
Blue jeans, smoke and backseat dreams
G Em Cadd9 G
Make kids in love believe anything
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G D
She can't feel rain in July without thinkin' about him
Cadd9 G D
And he can't see top-down, on Jeeps without thinkin' about her
G Cadd9
We love how forever begins
G Cadd9 G
But the trouble with forever is it always ends
Em D Cadd9 G
Ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 2]
G Em Cadd9
She thought love was a pretty, white dress
G Em Cadd9
He thought the work was done when she said, "Yes"
G Em Cadd9
Three hundred people heard her say, "I do"
G Em Cadd9 G
But there was no one there when he said, "We're through"
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G D
And she can't help sometimes wishin' they could start over
Cadd9 G D
And he knows there's so many things that he should have told her
G Cadd9
We love how forever begins
G Cadd9 G
But the trouble with forever is it always ends
Em D Cadd9 G
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Em D Cadd9 G
Ooh-ooh-ooh
[Outro]
G
He holds her hand as she says, "Goodbye"
G
Fifty years in the blink of an eye
G
As close to forever as you'll ever get
G Cadd9 G
The trouble with forever is it always ends
