Am                   G     Em          A
I never should have waited so long to say
Am            G            Em          A
what is going on since the very first day
Am                       G     Em         A
thought that you would stay forever with me
Am                G       Em  A
but the time has come to leave

Chorus:
           Am           G
before we turn off the lights
     Em        A
and close our eyes
      Am         G
i'll tell you a secret
   Em          A
i held all my life
    Am     G
its you i live for
    Em         A
and for you i die
      Am       G
so i lay here with you
        Em        A
in our final goodbye

Hold on me close, close to my lips
Listen intently as I tell you this
Outside, the world wages its wars
I'll rest in peace as long as you know

Chorus:
Before we turn out the lights and close our eyes
I'll tell you a secret I've held all my life
It's you that I live for, and for you, I die
So I'll lay here with you 'til the final goodbye

            Dm   G
Promise you our love
      A
Will carry on
           Dm    G
Until you turn eternal
 A
We belong

Chorus:
Before we turn out the lights and close our eyes
I'll tell you a secret I've held all my life
It's you that I live for, and for you, I die
So I'll lay here with you 'til the final goodbye
His respectful lips for the last time
And spell out the lyrics to love in the sky
It's you that I live for, and for you, I die
So I'll lay here with you
'Til the final goodbye

Goodbye
