A5
of the rest of my life

Chorus

sugar don't get no sweeter than this i know

Verse 2 (Repeat pattern from verse 1)
The sky was rainin'
everyone was complainin'
seems no one trusts the weatherman anyway
this name tag tied to my suitcase is all that i have left
i could be gone in a second without even a trace

stay with me in heaven promise me that
G5                A5          D5 
i don't wanna be a grown man cryin'
G5                A5          D5 
i don't wanna be a grown man cryin'

Bridge
E5                    C5
life is what happens when you're busy making other plans
A5                  C5
said a hero of mine who died way before his time
E5                      C5
he got shot for signing an autograph from one of his biggest fans
A5         C5                     G5
how's that for collapsible plaaa-aans . . .

Verse 3
G5
think i'll head back home a day early
A5
i'm not one much for long goodbye's
C5
walk me to the ferry under your umbrella
A5
and we'll kiss in the puddles in the sky
A5
we'll kiss in the puddles in the sky . . .

Chorus (same as above)
sugar don't get no sweeter than this i know
i've been at this thing a long long time
stay with me in heaven promise me that
i don't wanna be a grown man cryin'
(repeat and fade)
