Introduction:
G)
(verse)
G
Saw him coming from the upstairs room
Am
his headlights shined like the moon
C
I smile
G
He never makes me wait
G
Twelve roses like the clock reads noon
Am
This cinderella dances to the tune
C
oh while
G
there's no time to waste
(pre-Chorus)
C
So can we just slow down
D
while you make this mistake
C
just slow down
D
so my heart don't break
(chorus)
G
flying through the sky in a big airliner
Am
looking at me with those dark brown eyes
C
you say
G
I'll be forever yours
G
coming undone and my seams unravel
Am C
you know that I love you but my heart won't travel
G
but I'll still be yours
(verse)
G
Sitting in his car and it's two a.m.
Am
he's holding me like this will never end
C
I try
G
I try to hide my tears
G
Quarter to three and he's got to leave
Am C
a last goodbye and a kiss on my cheek I
G
won't forget these years
(pre-Chorus)
C
So can we just slow down
D
while you make this mistake
C
just slow down
D
so my heart don't break
(chorus)
G
flying through the sky in a big airliner
Am
looking at me with those dark brown eyes
C
you say
G
I'll be forever yours
G
coming undone and my seams unravel
Am C
you know that I love you but my heart won't travel
G
but I'll still be yours
(bridge)
C
So can we just slow down
D
while you make this mistake
C
just slow down
D
so my heart don't break
(chorus)
G
flying through the sky in a big airliner
Am
looking at me with those dark brown eyes
C
you say
G
I'll be forever yours
G
coming undone and my seams unravel
Am C
you know that I love you but my heart won't travel
G
but I'll still be yours
G
The seventeenth came way too soon
Am
now I'm staring at this empty room
C
he said
G
I'll be forever yours
