Forever ... (is a long time) Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Dm]I spent a [D]long tim[G]e
[A]Watering a [D]plant made out of [Bm]plastic
And I [D]curse the ground for
growing [Dsus4]green[D]
I spent a long [G]time

[Verse 2]
[A]
Substituting hon[Bbdim]est
with sar[Bm]castic
[E]And I curse my tongue for being
[Asus4]mean[D]

[Verse 3]
[Em]Weightless, breathless [Bm]restitute
[Em]Motionless and [Bm]absolute
He [Em]cut me open
[Bm]Sucked the poison [E]from an aging [F#]wound
Now [Em]fifty thousand [Bm]war cadets
Would [Em]cower at this small [Bm]brunette
It's a [Em]nice surprise knowing six
[Bm]feet high
[F#]Would reach [Bbdim]and grab

[Verse 4]
the moon if I should ask
[Bm]Or just impl[F#]y that I want
[F#m]you to be mo[Bm]re light
[Abdim]So I could look inside[G] his eyes
And get the col[Gm]ors just [C]right
Just [Dm]right, [D]jus[Dm]t rig[Gm]ht[Bb][Gm]

[Interlude 1]
Just
[Gm][Dm][Gm][Dm][Bb][Gm]
[Dm][Bb][Gm][Dm][Bb][Gm]
[Dm][Bb][Gm]
[Dm][Bb][Gm][D][Gm][Dm][Bb]
[Gm][D][Gm][Bb][Gm][D][Bb]
[Gm][Dm]

[Verse 5]
But [Gm]love built, God built [A]provinces
Built [Dm]calluses, break promises
'Cause [Gm]I could never [A]hold
a per[Dm]fect thing
And not demolish it
What am I thinking? What
[Gm]does [A]this mean?
How could somebody [Dm]ever [F]love me?
[Gm]Talk to your man,
tell him he's got [A]bad news coming
