VERSE:
 D
Once upon a time there was a boy who loved a girl.
        G
She was absolutely perfect in an imperfect world.
   D
Forever's a promise, it's more than just a word.
       G
They meant it to each other, of that they were sure.
         D
He came home to her crying at the top of the stairs.
            G
He asked, "baby what's the matter?" as he pushed back her hair.
          D
She said honey I'm sick.
                     A
What the hell did I do?

          G                       D
And with hate in his heart, he screamed at the moon.


CHORUS:
   D                             G
Please don't take her away from me,
                    D                 G   Bm
She truly is everything, that I have left.

Bm    F#m                A
   As selfish as it may seem,
                     D
I need you here with me.


VERSE:
 D
Day after day, he stood by her side,
                              G                 D
While Sleepless in Seattle, played through his mind.

 D
Forever seems longer when you've got your whole life,
                   G                              D
But forever is forgotten where the end draws the line.

           D
She said "honey just listen, listen to me,
G                                       D
We should be together in a boat on the sea."

    D
He held back his tears, and spoke quietly,
         G                                  D
"When I picture forever, it's you here with me."


CHORUS:
  D                             G
Please don't take her away from me,
                    D                 G   Bm
She truly is everything, that I have left.
Bm     D                 A
   As selfish as it may seem,
                     D
I need you here with me


CHORUS:
      D                            G
And please just let her go painlessly.
                          D
Let her drift on in her dreams.
                             G    Bm
Just don't make her feel a thing.
Bm       D                 A
   Just try and get some sleep.
                          D
This angel deserves her wings.


BDA K:
     D                    G
As leaves fall from the trees,
                 Bm
She became a memory,
                        Bm    G
To a man who lost everything-ing.

   D                      G
Forever doesn't mean anything.
                        Bm
Just a promise that we take.
                             G
But there's hope for you and me.


OUTRO:
      D                         A          D
She looked to the sky and with one final breath,
       F#                   G          D
Said "take this heart from out of my chest.
 D
Carry it far with the love you possess.
     G                            D
I'm sorry my boy, but I tried my best.
