VERSE 1
G            D         Em
I don't know if I ever wanted

    D                  C      G
The things you said we wanted together

C       D
Now and forever

G        D              Em
Too many nights I'd lie awake

             D                  C
Listening to every breath you'd take

       G
Like a stranger

C              D
Feel so out of place here
CHORUS
Em      C                G      G
I don't wonder what went wrong

Em              C            G        D
But I wish your memory would leave me alone

Em  D      Em
Now and forever
[INTRO GUITAR LICK – ONLY 5 bars] G D Em Em VERSE 2
G     D                   Em
I sit alone in this empty house

         D                 C
And your voice just like a ghost

         G
It comes to me

C            D
Chill passes through me

G             D                Em
I packed your clothes and photographs

          D                C                    G
Sent your little treasures back to where you're living

C             D
Guess now I'm forgiven
CHORUS
Em  C                  G      G
I   can't believe it's true

Em            C      G               D
I thought I'd always be in love with you

Em  D      Em
Now and forever
[Accordion Solo followed by guitar solo] VERSE 3
G            D            Em
My life goes on just like before

       D              C
In and out of closing doors

        G
I don't love it

C              D
But I learn to rise above it

G         D                 Em          D              C
I found a girl now who will love me the way I want her to

          G
She don't shout it

C             D
We don't ever talk about it
CHORUS
Em  C                  G      G
I   can't believe it's true

Em            C      G               D
I thought I'd always be in love with you

Em  D      Em
Now and forever
