This song is surprisingly simple, especially if you are already familiar with Travis picking (Google it if you want to learn). I based this off of what I hear in both the recorded and acoustic versions. Tips: 1. Keep your index finger on xxxx1x for the whole song. I believe that's how it's played the whole way through. 2. It's essentially a bass walk-down. If you keep that in mind, it becomes a lot easier to transition since the focus is on the bass note. 3. If you want to play like the acoustic versions, learn how to use the Travis picking form from Kansas' "Dust in the Wind" Below are the chord forms: C: x3201x C/B: x2001x G/B: x2003x Am7: x0201x Gsus4: 3x001x Fsus2: 1x301x Am7/E: 00201x Fsus2/Bb: x1301x Csus4/A: x0301x Intro: Am7/E Fsus2 (Repeat) Verse 1: C C/B G/B Forever could never be long enough for me Am7 Gsus4 Fsus2 To feel like I've had long enough with you C C/B G/B Forget the world now we won't let them see Am7 Gsus4 Fsus2 But there's one thing left to do Pre-Chorus 1: Am7/E Fsus2 Now that the weight has lifted Am7/E Fsus2 Love has surely shifted my way Chorus: C C/B G/B Marry Me Am7 Gsus4 Fsus2 Today and every day C C/B G/B Marry Me Am7 Gsus4 If I ever get the nerve to say Fsus2 Hello in this cafe Am7/E Fsus2 Say you will Am7/E Fsus2 Say you will Verse 2: C C/B G/B Together could never be close enough for me Am7 Gsus4 Fsus2 To feel like I am close enough to you C C/B G/B You wear white and I'll wear out the words Am7 Gsus4 Fsus2 "I love you" and "you're beautiful" Pre-Chorus 2: Am7/E Fsus2 Now that the wait is over Am7/E Fsus2 And love and has finally shown her my way Chorus Bridge: Fsus2/Bb Promise me Csus4/A You'll always be C C/B G/B Happy by my side Fsus2/Bb I promise to Csus4/A Sing to you C C/B G/B Fsus2/Bb When all the music dies Chorus Am7/E F Marry Me
