Intro
G+G
Verse 1
E minor 7Em7
Oh Florida please, be still tonight, don't disturb this love of mine
G+G
Look how she's so serene, you've gotta help me out
E minor 7Em7
And count the stars to form in lines and find the words we'll sing in time
G+G
I want to keep her dreaming, it's my one wish, I won't forget this
Pre-Chorus
D MajorD
I'm outdated, overrated
D MajorD
Morning seems so far away
Chorus
GsusGsus
So I'll sing a melody
Cadd9Cadd9
And hope to God she's listening
DsusDsus
Sleeping softly while I sing
GsusGsus
And I'll be your memories
Cadd9Cadd9
Your lullaby for all the times
DsusDsus
Hoping that my voice could get it right
**Now, one guitar repeats the intro and the other does a little diddle.. :D

The hours change so fast, oh God, please make this last
