 verse 1:
 D     E
 Am I real?
         Bm7                               E
 Do the words I speak before you make you feel?
           Bm7                              A
 That the love I have for you will see no ending?
               Am                                 E
 Well, if you look into my eyes, then you should know
           Bm7                                    E
 That you have nothing here to doubt, nothing to fear
           Bm7                                          A
 And you can lay your questions down, 'cause if you'll hold me
         Am                             G
 We can fade into the night and you'll know


 chorus:
      Em         Bm7      C             G
 The world could die and everything may lie
    Em                D C-D-G
 Still you shouldn't cry
   Em             Bm7       C                G
 'cause time may pass but longer than it'll last
         Em        D  C-D-(do the guitar intro)
 I'll be by your side


 verse 2: (do chord of verse 1)

 Take my hand
 And gently close your eyes so you could understand
 That there is no greater love tonight than what I have for you
 Well, if you feel the same way for me, then let to
 We can journey, a garden no one knows
 Life is short my darling, tell me that you love
 So we can fade into the night and you'll know

 (repeat chorus)
