**i love you hon forever.. i love you Gilbert..

intro : G-C-F-C-C-G-Dm (2 times)

verse i
G        C        F        C
 now the parking lot is empty
C      G              Dm   G
 everyone's gone someplace
G         C                F          C
 i pick you up and in the trunk i've packed
    Bb                 Dm-G
a cooler and a 2-day suitcase
G                  C       F        C
 cause there's a place we like to drive
C        G         Dm   
 way out in the country
G           C           F               C
five miles out of the city limit we're singing
        Bb                Dm-G   
and your hand's upon my knee

chorus:
           C
(so/cause) we're okay
      Bb-G
we're fine
          F                  G
baby i'm here to stop your crying
                C               Bb
chase all the ghosts from your head
                        F                   G-Em
i'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed
                   Am                   F
smarter than the tricks played on your heart
                      C                 G          Am
we'll look at them together then we'll take them apart
              Dm          Em          F
adding up the total of a love that's true
          G                   (do intro chords once)    
multiply life by the power of two

verse ii
(same chord pattern as verse i)
you know the things that i am afraid of
i'm not afraid to tell
and if we ever leave a legacy
it's that we loved each other well
cause i've seen the shadows of so many people
trying on the treasures of youth
but a road that fancy and fast
ends in a fatal crash
and i'm glad we got off
to tell you the truth

(repeat chorus and intro chords once)

bridge
Dm       Em            F   
 all the shiny little trinkets of temptation
(make new friends) 
           F             G or(Em)  Am or(Dm)
something new instead of something old
(but keep the old) 
Dm         Em          F
 all you gotta do is scratch beneath the surface
(but remember what is gold) 
         F-Em-Dm
and it's fools gold
(what is gold) 
    F-Em-Dm
fools gold
(what is gold) 
  F Em Dm
fools gold

(same chords as verse i)
now we're talking about a difficult thing 
and your eyes are getting wet
i took us for better and i took us for worse
don't you ever forget it
now the steel bars between me and a promise
suddenly bend with ease
the closer i'm bound in love to you
the closer i am to free

repeat chorus

outro: G-C-F-C-C-G-Dm--C
