F#
I often think about the way you'll
                          B
think about me when we're o-o-old
D#m
I always thought that we could be 
                         C#
the greatest story ever to-o-old

But there's a rock inside my sock,
I'll keep on walkin' 'cause it's co-o-old
And I can't stop the clock from tickin',
I know that it's just the beginnin'

Chorus:
F#                             B
Don't forget, this story's not over yet
                  D#m
Time pass like a cigarette
               C#
Turning into smoke between our fingers
Tell me you won't forget
Remember the night we met
Rewind like an old cassette
And I'll be the song that's on your speakers
Playin' for you, you, you
Playin' for you, you, you
I'll be playin' for you, you, you
And I'll be the song that's on your speakers

I often wonder why I wonder how
I'll feel in thirty years
About the time we spent together,
will the memories disappear?
It might sound crazy, but my baby,
that's the thing that I most fear
Oh, I can't stop the world from spinnin',
I know that it's just the beginnin'

Chorus:
So please don't forget,
this story's not over yet
Time pass like a cigarette
Turning into smoke between our fingers
Tell me you won't forget
Remember the night we met
Rewind like an old cassette
And I'll be the song that's on your speakers
Playin' for you, you, you
Playin' for you, you, you
I'll be playin' for you, you, you
And I'll be the song that's on your speakers

    G#m                             B
And if one day the image starts to fade'
      F#                                 C#
Don't worry, babe, well, that would be okay
I'll give you all the memories that I saved
Just leave me with a picture,
just a picture of your face

Chorus:
I won't forget, this story's not over yet
Time pass like a cigarette
Turning into smoke between our fingers
Tell me you won't forget
Remember the night we met
Rewind like an old cassette
And I'll be the song that's on your speakers
Playin' for you, you, you
Playin' for you, you, you
Playin' for you, you, you
And I'll be the song that's on your speakers
Playin' for you
