Now And Forever
By: The Wild Swans

Intro: A E D A
A                                E                              A                  D
You haven't washed your face in days and your cotton shirt is holy
A                                   E                   A                         D
You used to live your life so fast now you find the days drag slowly
A                        E                                 A                 D
The only one that you adore turns your woman iceberg blue
A                          E                               A           D
You blame it on the bottle now, boy has this town crippled you
A           D        A                 D
No gulls flying, no fishes swimming
         A                       D            A
Just lowered voice and fallen women

A                   E                              A                  D
It's cold at the sailor's rest and your king of all that's lowly
A                                   E                   A                       D
You're praying on a phantom check and the river's smiling coldly
A                        E                               A                          D
You want the life you can't afford after all that you've been through
A                   E                A                        D
Soon it will be over, boy has this town crippled you

A           D        A                 D
No gulls flying, no fishes swimming
         A                       D            A
Just lowered voice and fallen women

A           D              A              D
Man and baby and storm cloud weather
             A          D                    A          D
Who counts your blessings, now and forever

Guitar riff: A  E  D  A

A           D        A                 D
No gulls flying, no fishes swimming
         A                       D            A
Just lowered voice and fallen women
A           D              A              D
Man and baby and storm cloud weather
            D           A                                D          A
Who counts your blessings, now and forever, Amen
