Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Cm][Cm][Cm][F]
[Fm][G][G]

[Verse 1]
If [Cm]I could save time in a bo[F]ttle
The [Fm]first thing that I'd like to [G]do
is to [Cm]save every day
'Til e[Fm]ternity passes a[Cm]way
Just to [Fm]spend them with [G]you

[Verse 2]
If [Cm]I could make days last foreve[F]r
If [Fm]words could make wishes come [G]true
I'd [Cm]save every day like a [Fm]treasure and then
A[Cm]gain, I would [Fm]spend them with [G]you

[Chorus 1]
But there [C]never seems to [Em]be enough time
To [Am]do the things you w[C]ant to do
Once you [F]find [C]them[Dm][G]
I've [C]looked around e[Em]nough to know
That [Am]you're the one I [C]want to go
Through [F]time [C]with[Dm][G]

[Interlude 1]
[Cm][Cm][Cm][F]
[Fm][G][G]

[Verse 3]
If [Cm]I had a box just for wi[F]shes
And [Fm]dreams that had never come [G]true
The [Cm]box would be empty
Ex[Fm]cept for the memory
Of [Cm]how they were a[Fm]nswered by y[G]ou

[Chorus 2]
But there [C]never seems to [Em]be enough time
To [Am]do the things you w[C]ant to do
Once you [F]find [C]them[Dm][G]
I've [C]looked around e[Em]nough to know
That [Am]you're the one I [C]want to go
Through [F]time [C]with[Dm][G]

[Outro 1]
