[Chorus 1]
F#
This could be forever, baby
G#m
This could be forever, baby
B
This could be forever, baby
F#maj7
This could be forever, maybe
F#
Do you like the sunshine, do you like the snow?
G#m
Do you wanna talk about it, or be alone?
B F#maj7
I think that you should know that, this could be forever, baby
[Verse 1]
F#
Open up your eyes and tell me whatcha thinkin'
G#m
Open up your mind, and tell me whatcha seein'
F#
Inside of me, why we fussin', fuckin' up this evenin'
G#m
I probably couldn't fix it if I knew the reason
F#
Up on the sea, where I see you fallin' in the deep end
G#m
Is it love? I would really love to know the meanin'
F#
What's the grudge that you're holdin'?
G#m
Hold my hand let me take you to the land
Where the ocean and the sands are meetin'
F#
Look at the sun, all we need to see to know our freedom
G#m
Open up your heart, if we don't love then we fall apart
[Chorus 2]
F#
This could be forever, baby
G#m
I never seen you wetter, baby
B
Than when the tears fall
Soakin' up your sweater, baby
F#maj7
I didn't mean harm
Don't make me regret it, baby
[Bridge]
F#
'Cause if I never knew ya, I could never do this to ya
G#m
Hope you understand, they never taught me how to be a man
B F#maj7
Only how to be a shooter, I only need the time to prove it
[Chorus 3]
F#
'Cause this could be forever, baby
G#m
This could be forever, baby
F#
This could be forever, baby
G#m
This could be forever, maybe
F#
Do you like the sunshine, do you like the snow?
G#m
Do you wanna talk about it, or be alone?
F# F#maj7
I think that you should know that, this could be forever, baby
[Verse 2]
F#
My teachers told me we was slaves
G#m
My mama told me we was kings
F#
I don't know who to listen to
G#m
I guess we somewhere in between
B
My feelings told me love is real
F#maj7
But feelings known to get you killed
F#
I feel as if I'm misconstrued
G#m
I spend my moments missin' you
B
I'm searchin' for atonement
Do I blame my darker tone?
F#maj7
I know somethings are better left unsaid
And people left alone
F#
Pick up the phone
G#m
Don't leave me alone in this cruel, cruel world
