Verse

[A]Maybe this wont [Bm]last very long

But [F#7]you feel so right

And [D]I could be wrong

[A]Maybe Ive been [Bm]hoping too hard

[E7]But Ive gone this far

And its [A]more than I hoped for

[D]Who knows [A]how much [G]further well go [A]on

[D]Maybe [A]Ill be [E]sorry when youre [A]gone

[F#]Ill take my [Bm]chances

[A7]I forgot how [D]nice [D7]romance is

[G]I havent [Em]been there for the [A]longest [D]time

[A]I had second [Bm]thoughts at the start

I [F#7]said to myself

Hold [D]on to your heart

[A]Now I know the [Bm]woman that you are

Youre [E7]wonderful so far

And its [A]more than I hoped for

[D]I dont [A]care what [G]consequence it [A]brings

[D]I have [A]been a [E]fool for lesser [A]things

[F#]I want you [Bm]so bad

[A7]I think you [D]ought to [D7]know that

[G]I intend to [Em]hold you for the [A]longest [D]time
