A F#m B E Didn’t I say I wasn’t ready for romance A F#m B E Didn’t we promise we would only be friends D Bm E F#m And so we danced, though it was only a slow dance D Bm E A I started breaking my promises right there and then Didn't I swear there would be no complications? Didn't you want someone who's seen it all before? Now that you're here, it's not the same situation Suddenly, I don't remember the rules anymore F C/E F/A C/G This night is mine F C/E Dm G C It’s only you and I A# Am D7 Tomorrow is a long time away Gm C Gm/A# F This night can last forever I've been around, someone like me should know better Falling in love would be the worst thing I could do Didn't I say I needed time to forget her? Aren't you running from someone who's not over you? How many nights have I been lonely without you? I tell myself how much I really don't care How many nights have I been thinking about you? Wanting to hold you but knowing you would not be there Chorus: This night, you're mine It's only you and I I'll tell you to forget yesterday This night we are together A# F/A A#/D F/C This night is mine A# F/A Gm C F It’s only you and I D# Dm Gm Tomorrow is such a long time away Cm F Cm/D# A# This night can last forever Tomorrow is such a long time away This night can last forever You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  A#  Am  B  Bm  C  Cm  D  D7  D#  Dm  E  F  F#m  G  Gm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
