Intro:

G6 D/F# Asus4 x2

Verse 1:
            G6               D/F#            Asus4
The day the music stopped, I swear, I almost died
            G6                 D/F#            Asus4
I turned it off, I know, but I had to make the time
              G6              D/F#   Asus4
To watch some cops upstate conduct a DUI
         G6       D/F#           Asus4
Over and over, until I'm feeling fine
              G6                D/F#        Asus4
My fear grows legs and books it to the interstate
             G6              D/F#          Asus4
She took the magic with her, now I have to fake it
             G6                 D/F#         Asus4
She's at the party, before they even know my name
           G6         D/F#           Asus4
My fear is early each time that I am late

Chorus:
D/F#           G    Asus4
Nothing is forever, isn't that the sweetest song?
  D/F#            G             Asus4
I heard it in the morning, over dew drops drying in the sun
    D/F#          G        Asus4    F#7/A#  Bm
And later on that night, I tried my best to sing along
       E                Asus4
'Cause nothing is forever
         N.C.           G6 D/F# Asus4
And I found that it had gone

Verse 2:
            G6               D/F#            Asus4
The summer days spent in the kitchen killing time
               G6                   D/F#             Asus4
The light that filtered through the curtains and the pines
               G6                D/F#         F#7      Bm
The world felt slow and soft and smaller, but I didn't mind
        G6  D             Asus4
We were happy to have the time

Chorus:
    D/F#           G    Asus4
But nothing is forever, isn't that the saddest song?
  D/F#            G             Asus4
I heard it in the morning, over dew drops drying in the sun
    D/F#          G        Asus4    F#7/A#  Bm
And later on that night, I tried my best to sing along
    E                Asus4
But nothing is forever
                         G6 D/F# Asus4
And I found that it had gone

[Interlude]
G D Dmaj7/F# Bm7
G D Dmaj7/F# Bm7

Bridge:
                G D                   Dmaj7/F# Bm
The best things last, the best things go
            G    D              Dmaj7/F# Bm
The seasons change, the seasons slow
           G    D             Dmaj7/F# Bm
The circle gained fresh fallen snow
                G     D              Dmaj7/F# Bm
My best friend's father, my childhood home

Chorus:
D/F#           G    Asus4
Nothing is forever, isn't that the saddest song?
  D/F#            G             Asus4
I heard it in the morning, over dew drops drying in the sun
    D/F#          G        Asus4    F#7/A#  Bm
And later on that night, I tried my best to sing along
    E                A
But nothing is forever
         N.C.           G6 D Asus4
And I found that it had gone
