Lyrics and chords
if it takes forever
am, e7, f

(am) If it takes (e7) forever ill (f) find my way to you
(c) the deepest (e7) darkness I’d push (f) through
(c) If i ever (e7) lost you, (f) I don’t know where I’d go
(c) You’re the only (e7) life I want to (f) know


(c) nothing comes (g) easy
(f) nothing’s meant to last
(am) let’s live for (e7) today, forget the (f) past
(c) Life could be (g) simple, (f) life could be great, (c) life is right (e7) here, no need to (f) wait

(am) If love is the (e7)answer
what (f) question should I pose
(c) to find a (e7) love
my heart just (f) knows

(am)I’ve been trying to catch (e7) shadows walking (f) paths I never knew
(am) But every (e7) road
leads back to (f) you

(c) nothing comes (g) easy
(f) nothing’s meant to last
(am) let’s live for (e7) today, forget the (f) past
(c) Life could be (g) simple, (f) life could be great, (c) life is right (e7) here, no need to (f) wait


(dm) don’t throw it all (e7) away
(am) on yester (e7 ) day


(am) Maybe love’s a (e7) reflection
of the (f) dreams we keep inside,
(c) that shines a guiding (e7)light
when hope has (f) died.

(am) maybe we don’t need (e7) answers,
(f) let’s live for today
(c) live for (e7) today in every (f) way
am, e7, f, am, e7, am
