Lyrics

When (D)ev er I’m (Em)wea ry

from the (Am)bat tles that (Em)rage in my (D)head,

you (D)make sense of (Em)mad ness

when my (Am)san i ty (Em)hangs by a (D)thread.

I lose my way, but still you seem to un der stand.

Now and for ev er,

I will be your man.

Some (D)times I just (Em)hold you,

from the (Am)too caught up (Em)in me to (D)see

I’m (D)hold ing a (Em)for tune

when that (Am)heav en has (Em)giv en to (D)me.

I’ll try to show you each and ev ’ry way I can,

now and for ev er,

I will be your man.

(B7)Now I can rest my wor ries and (G)al ways be sure

that I won’t be a lone an y more.

If I’d (C)on ly known you were there all the time,

all this time.

Un til the day the o cean does n’t touch the sand,

now and for ev er,

I will be your man.

Now and for ev er,

I will be

your (C)man.
