Came here for the weekend, but I haven’t left in years (Is that weird)

But if one of us dies
Chorus:
E7 C
I hope I die first
G
Cause I don't wanna live without you
Dm
I don't wanna ever learn
Am
How to fall asleep without you
C
Tell me what’s worse?
G
Losing you now or later
Dm
Maybe I can break the curse
Am
And I can be in love forever
Outro:
C
If I die first
G
I hope I die first
Dm Am
I can be in love forever, love forever, love forever
C
If I die first
G
I hope I die first
Dm Am
I can be in love forever, love forever, love forever
