        Verse 1:

        F#m            D                                    B                  D

        Say goodbye on a night like this        If it's the last thing we ever do

            F#m          D                                   B                      D

        You never looked as lost as this        Sometimes it doesn't even look like you

                F#m                     D                               B

        It goes dark            It goes darker still            Please stay

              F#m                D                             B    D

        But I watch you like I'm made of stone  As you walk away

 

        Chorus 1:

            C#m                      Bm                    C#m                    Bm

        I'm coming to find you if it takes me all night  A witch hunt for another girl

            C#m                Bm                    G#m                       E

        For always and ever is always for you   Your trust the most gorgeously stupid thing

               F#m              D     B    D

        I ever cut in the world

 

        Verse 2:

        F#m            D                               B             D

        Say hello on a day like today           Say it everytime you move

            F#m                     D                    B          D

        The way that you look at me now         Makes me wish I was you

                F#m                    D                       B             D

        It goes deep            It goes deeper still            This touch

                F#m           D                          B             D

        And the smile and the shake of your head And the smile and the shake of your head

 

        Chorus 2:

            C#m                     Bm                       C#m                     Bm

        I'm comin to find you if it takes me all night Can't stand here like this anymore

            C#m                Bm                   G#m           E                      D

        For always and ever is always for you     I want it to be perfect     Like before
