[Intro] Am C Fmaj7 Am C Fmaj7 F C F C G [Verse 1]
             Am            C               Fmaj7
It's not the long, flowing dress that you're in

       Am           C           Fmaj7
Or the light coming off of your skin

            F                       C                
The fragile heart you protected for so long

       F                                C  G
Or the mercy in your sense of right and wrong

              Am             C           Fmaj7
It's not your hands searching slow in the dark

        Am            C           Fmaj7 
Or your nails leaving love's watermark

             F                       C              
It's not the way you talk me off the roof

     F                                C  G
Your questions like directions to the truth
[Chorus]
F                                  C
It's knowing that this can't go on forever

F                                   C                G
It's likely one of us will have to spend some days alone

F                            C
Maybe we'll get forty years together

    G               Am
But one day I'll be gone

Am                   C  G
Or one day you'll be gone
[Verse 2]
           Am           C          Fmaj7
If we were vampires and death was a joke

        Am         C            Fmaj7
We'd go out on the sidewalk and smoke

F                                C               
Laugh at all the lovers and their plans

F                                     C G
I wouldn't feel the need to hold your hand

      Am           C       Fmaj7
Maybe time running out is a gift

          Am            C         Fmaj7
I'll work hard 'til the end of my shift

    F                           C
And give you every second I can find

    F                           C  G
And hope it isn't me who's left behind
[Chorus]
      F                               C
It's knowing that this can't go on forever

     F                             C                G
It's likely one of us will have to spend some days alone

F                            C
Maybe we'll get forty years together

G                    Am
But one day I'll be gone

Am                   C  G     F
Or one day you'll be gone 
[Interlude] Am C Fmaj7 Am C Fmaj7 F C F C G [Chorus]
      F                               C
It's knowing that this can't go on forever

     F                             C                G
It's likely one of us will have to spend some days alone

F                            C
Maybe we'll get forty years together

G                    Am
But one day I'll be gone

Am                   C  G
Or one day you'll be gone
[Chorus]
      F                               C
It's knowing that this can't go on forever

     F                             C                G
It's likely one of us will have to spend some days alone

F                            C
Maybe we'll get forty years together

G                    Am
But one day I'll be gone

Am                   C  G       F
Or one day you'll be gone
