  E                             A
Apart for a while not forever alone

                     E                    B  F# B
We got memories to share got pictures we own

                           E Bm
We got the friends that we k-new

                      A
We gotta marriage on file

           E    B7           E  A  E
Together again apart for a while
(pause) [Chorus]
                      A
Everything happens to me

                           E
And everything happens to you

                              F#
So if one should outlive the other

                            F#m   B
Let these words guide him through

             E  E7                  A
God is not dead so death's out of style

           E     B7          E  A  E
Together again apart for a while

And everything happens to you

So if one should outlive the other

                            F#m   B
Let these words guide him through
