Verse 1:
         Dm                 F             A#maj7
It's not the long, flowing dress that you're in
         Dm           F        A#maj7
Or the light coming off of your skin
             A#            F              Dm
The fragile heart you protected for so long
    A#              F                  Dm      C
The mercy in your sense of right and wrong
              Dm              F         A#maj7
It's not your hands searching slow in the dark
        Dm            F           A#maj7
Or your nails leaving love's watermark
             A#       F               Dm
It's not the way you talk me off the roof
      A#              F                Dm      C
Your questions like directions to the truth

Chorus:
      A#                             F
It's knowing that this can't go on forever
      A#                            F                C
It's likely one of us will have to spend some days alone
A#                            F
Maybe we'll get forty years together
                     Dm
But one day I'll be gone
                     F  C
Or one day you'll be gone


Verse 2:
           Dm            F          A#maj7
If we were vampires and death was a joke
        Dm          F            A#maj7
We'd go out on the sidewalk and smoke
A#                F                Dm
Laugh at all the lovers and their plans
A#                    F                Dm     C
I wouldn't feel the need to hold your hand
      Dm            F       A#maj7
Maybe time running out is a gift
          Dm            F          A#maj7
I'll work hard 'til the end of my shift
    A#              F             Dm
And give you every second I can find
    A#            F             Dm       C
And hope it isn't me who's left behind


Chorus:
      A#                             F
It's knowing that this can't go on forever
      A#                            F                C
It's likely one of us will have to spend some days alone
A#                            F
Maybe we'll get forty years together
                     Dm
But one day I'll be gone
                     F  C
Or one day you'll be gone

Or one day you'll be gone

Or one day you'll be gone
