verse 1:
D E
Am I real?
Bm7 E
Do the words I speak before you make you feel?
Bm7 A
That the love I have for you will see no ending?
Am E
Well, if you look into my eyes, then you should know
Bm7 E
That you have nothing here to doubt, nothing to fear
Bm7 A
And you can lay your questions down, 'cause if you'll hold me
Am G
We can fade into the night and you'll know
chorus:
Em Bm7 C G
The world could die and everything may lie
Em D C-D-G
Still you shouldn't cry
Em Bm7 C G
'cause time may pass but longer than it'll last
Em D C-D-(do the guitar intro)
I'll be by your side
verse 2: (do chord of verse 1)
Take my hand
And gently close your eyes so you could understand
That there is no greater love tonight than what I have for you
Well, if you feel the same way for me, then let to
We can journey, a garden no one knows
Life is short my darling, tell me that you love
So we can fade into the night and you'll know
(repeat chorus)
solo: (Perf de Castro's tasty lick, w/ fair distortion & a bit of reverb.)
(bridge pick up)
