Am
Stay for tonight
F
If you want to
I can show you
C
What my dreams are made of,
G
As I'm dreaming of your face
Am
I've been away for a long time
F
Such a long time
C
And I miss you there
I can't imagine being anywhere else
G Am
I can't imagine being anywhere else but here
[Am x2]
[Verse 1:]
Am
How the hell did you ever pick me?
F C
Honestly, I could sing you a song
G
But I don't think words can express your beauty
It's singing to me
Am
How the hell did we end up like this?
F C
You bring out the beast in me
G
I fell in love from the moment we kissed
Since then we've been history
Am
(oh aaahhhh)
[Chorus:]
Am F
They say that love is forever
C
Your forever is all that I need
G
Please stay as long as you need
Am F
Can't promise that things won't be broken
C
But I swear that I will never leave
G
Please stay forever with me
[Verse 2:]
Am F
It goes to show, I hope that you know that you are
What my dreams are made of
C G
Can't fall asleep, can't fall asleep
Am F
I lay in my bed awake, in my bed awake at night
C
As I dream of you
G
I'll fall in love, you'll fall in love
Am F
It could mean everything, everything to me
C G
I can't imagine being anywhere else
[Chorus:]
Am F
They say that love is forever
C
Your forever is all that I need
G
Please stay as long as you need
Am F
Can't promise that things won't be broken
C
But I swear that I will never leave
G
Please stay forever with me
[Bridge:]
Am
The way that we are
F
It's the reason I stay
C
As long as you're here with me
G
I know we'll be Ok
Am
The way that we are
F
It's the reason I stay
C
As long as you're here with me
G
I know I'll be Ok
[Chorus:]
Am F
They say that love is forever
C
Your forever is all that I need
G
Please stay as long as you need
Am F
Can't promise that things won't be broken
C
But I swear that I will never leave

Intro
C Gsus4 x2
Verse
C F
The hardest thing I'd ever do is say goodbye
Am
and walk slowly away from you,
F
But I'll do it.
C
And after all this time I shared with you,
F
it seems unfair to leave with nothing more
Am F
than blank stares, but I'll do it.
C
If it's for the best then I wish you well,
F Am
if it helps to say our life was a living hell,
F
well then do it, then do it, then do it.
Chorus
C F
Don't you ever forget about me,
Am
When you toss and turn in your sleep,
F
I hope it's because you can't stop thinking about
C
the reasons why you close your eyes,
Gsus4
I haunt your dreams at night,
C F
So you can't stop thinking about me,
C
don't stop thinking about me.
C Gsus4 x2
Verse
C
Do you really think you could see this through,
F Am
put on a smile, and wear it for someone new?
F
Don't you do it.
C F
Cause I know I'm not the easiest one to love,
Am F
but every ounce I have, I'd invest in you.
Dm F
No one said love's not for taking chances.
Chorus
C F
Don't you ever forget about me,
Am
When you toss and turn in your sleep,
F
I hope it's because you can't stop thinking about
C
the reasons why you close your eyes,
Gsus4
I haunt your dreams at night,
C F
So you can't stop thinking about me,
C
don't stop thinking about me.
Bridge
Dm Em F
Will you take me back in the morning,
Dm Em F
If i promise to never act this way again?
Dm Em F
Cause I'm so bad at being lonely,
Dm Em F
but I don't know how, I don't know how.
C F
So don't you ever forget about me,
C F
don't you ever forget about me.
Chorus
C F
Don't you ever forget about me,
Am
When you toss and turn in your sleep,

I hope it's because you can't stop thinking about

I haunt your dreams at night,
C F
So you can't stop thinking about me,
C
don't stop thinking about me.
Gsus4 F
Just close your eyes and fall asleep tonight.
