NOTES:
1.  Intro chords fit the keyboard/strings intro, but the original Intro
    isn't all that distinctive, so I wouldn't feel bad about changing
    it to suit your own style and/or preference
2.  "A" chord at end of 2nd line is optional (listen to the original
    and you'll know what I mean)
3.  Send any comments, suggestions, etc to:

        I Don't Want to Miss a Thing       Aerosmith (Diane Warren)

[Keyboard Intro]  |:  E  C#m  E  :|

Bm  A        D          A/C#             Bm
     I could stay awake just to hear you breathin'
          G                   F#m                    Em       (A)
Watch you smile while you are sleepin', while you're far away dreamin'
        D             A/C#         Bm
I could spend my life in this sweet  surrender
        G                 F#m        Em
I could stay lost in this moment, forever
             F#m         G                 A
Every moment spent, with you is a moment I treasure

        Chorus:
     D                  A/C#
        I don't want to close my eyes
     Em                                        G
        I don't want to fall asleep 'cause I'd miss you baby
                            A        D
        and I don't want to miss a thing
                           A/C#
        'cause even when I dream of you
     Em                                            G
        the sweetest dream will never do I'd still miss you baby
                            A        D   A/C#  Em
        and I don't want to miss a thing

Lyin close to you feeling your heart beating
and I'm wonderin' what you're dreaming
wonderin' if it's me you're seein'
Then I kiss your eyes and thank God we're together
               F#m       G                     A
I just want to stay with you in this moment forever, forever and ever



Bridge:
                C                               G/B
I don't want to miss one smile, I don't want to miss one kiss
               Bb                               Am
I just want to be with you right here with you, just like this
               C                                  G/B
I just want to hold you close, feel your heart so close to mine
         Dm                                    A
and just stay here in this moment, for all the rest of time
