Hello
     Bm               Bm
I've waited here for you
G   Bm      Bm
  Everlong

 D      D
Tonight
     Bm           Bm
I throw myself into
G                 Bm              Bm
  And out of the red, out of her head she sang

D D Bm Bm G Bm Bm

 D        D
Come down
     Bm              Bm
And waste away with me
G        Bm      Bm
   Down with me

  D       D
Slow how
     Bm           Bm
You wanted it to be
G               Bm               Bm
   I'm over my head, out of her head she sang

D      D      A      D      D
                 And I wonder
A                D            D
   When I sing along with you

Bm                        G                D   D
If everything could ever feel this real forever
Bm                       G             D    D
 If anything could ever be this good again
Bm                       G          D
The only thing I'll ever ask of you
                               A
You've got to promise not to stop when
     G          D   D Bm Bm G Bm Bm
I say when she sang

D          D
Breathe out
   Bm                Bm
So I can breathe you in
G       Bm      Bm
   Hold you in

D       D
And now
   Bm                 Bm
I know you've always been
G              Bm              Bm
  Out of your head, out of my head I sang

D      D      A      D      D
                 And I wonder
A                D            D
   When I sing along with you

Bm                        G                D   D
If everything could ever feel this real forever
Bm                       G             D    D
 If anything could ever be this good again
Bm                       G          D
The only thing I'll ever ask of you
                               A
You've got to promise not to stop when
     G          D   D Bm Bm G Bm Bm
I say when she sang
