Intro: G C Em D G C Em D
GD
Promises are hard to keep
EmCEm
She falls in love three times a week
EmDC
And when she falls it?s always deeper
D
Than the time before
GD
Easier said and harder done
EmDEm
To love one only, only one
EmD
Sometimes head and heart succumb
CD
To heaven in the making
ref.:
GCEmD
And we fall, after being warned and told
GCEmD
After all, the days and nights of hot and cold
GCEmDG
Knowing calls for closing eyes and healing words
EmD
I?ll love you forever
GD
Beholding to the heart in dreams
EmDEm
We fall in love with love, it seems
EmD
Believing in those movie scenes
CD
And the happily ever after
GD
Well some go on and some remain
EmCEm
In the winning losing loving game
EmD
And who we hurt in love?s name
CD
It haunts us in our dreaming
ref.:
GCEmD
And we fall, after being warned and told
GCEmD
After all, the days and nights of hot and cold
GCEmDG
Knowing calls for closing eyes and healing words
EmD
I?ll love you forever
GD
Through the door and down the aisle
EmD
Through the mind?s eye the years and miles
EmD
And tell me dear, do you still smile
CDGDm
?Cause this is how you?ve spent your life tonight
GDm
And we fall
GDm
Over and over we fall
ref.:
GCEmD
And we fall, after being warned and told
GCEmD
After all, the days and nights of hot and cold
GCEmDG
Knowing calls for closing eyes and healing words
EmD
I?ll love you forever
