Lyrics
(F)How can I con vince you
Now (Bbmaj7)what you see is real?
At (F)Who am I to blame you
for (Bbmaj7)doubt ing what you feel?
You (Dm)I was al ways (C)reach ing.
and (Bbmaj7)You were just a (F)girl (C)I (Dm)knew.
I took for (Am7)grant ed
the (Bb)friend I have in (Asus)you.
I was liv ing for (D)a dream,
lov ing for a (A)mo ment.
Tak ing on (D)the world,
that was just my (Asus)style.
Now I (G)look in to your (F)eyes;
I can see for (Gm7)ev er.
The search is (Dm)o ver.
You were (Bb)with me (C)all the (F)while.
(F)Can we last for ev er?
Now (Bbmaj7)Do we fall a part?
The (F)times it’s so con fus ing,

So (Dm)fol lowed me through (C)chang es
and (Bbmaj7)pa tient ly you’d (F)wait (C)till (Dm)I came to my (Am7)sens es

Tak ing on (D)the world,

Now I (G)look in to your (F)eyes;
I can see for (Gm7)ev er.
The search is (Dm)o ver.
You were (Bb)with me (C)all the (F)while.
