VERSE:
 D
Once upon a time there was a boy who loved a girl. 
        G
She was absolutely perfect in an imperfect world. 
   D
Forever's a promise, it's more than just a word.
       G
They meant it to each other, of that they were sure. 
         D
He came home to her crying at the top of the stairs. 
            G
He asked, "baby what's the matter?" as he pushed back her hair. 
          D
She said honey I'm sick. 
                     A
What the hell did I do? 
 
          G                       D
And with hate in his heart, he screamed at the moon. 
 
 
CHORUS:
   D                             G
Please don't take her away from me, 
                    D                 G   Bm
She truly is everything, that I have left. 
 
Bm    F#m                A
   As selfish as it may seem, 
                     D
I need you here with me. 
 
 
VERSE:
 D
Day after day, he stood by her side, 
                              G                 D
While Sleepless in Seattle, played through his mind. 
 
 D
Forever seems longer when you've got your whole life, 
                   G                              D
But forever is forgotten where the end draws the line. 
 
           D
She said "honey just listen, listen to me, 
G                                       D
We should be together in a boat on the sea." 
 
    D
He held back his tears, and spoke quietly, 
         G                                  D
"When I picture forever, it's you here with me." 
 
 
CHORUS:
  D                             G
Please don't take her away from me, 
                    D                 G   Bm
She truly is everything, that I have left. 
Bm     D                 A
   As selfish as it may seem, 
                     D
I need you here with me
 
 
CHORUS:
      D                            G
And please just let her go painlessly. 
                          D
Let her drift on in her dreams. 
                             G    Bm
Just don't make her feel a thing. 
Bm       D                 A
   Just try and get some sleep. 
                          D
This angel deserves her wings. 
 
 
BREAK:
     D                    G
As leaves fall from the trees, 
                 Bm
She became a memory, 
                        Bm    G
To a man who lost everything-ing. 
 
   D                      G
Forever doesn't mean anything. 
                        Bm
Just a promise that we take.  
                             G
But there's hope for you and me. 
 
 
OUTRO:
      D                         A          D
She looked to the sky and with one final breath, 
       F#                   G          D
Said "take this heart from out of my chest. 
 D
Carry it far with the love you possess. 
     G                            D
I'm sorry my boy, but I tried my best.
