Capo 7th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse

Saw him coming from the upstairs room

his headlights shined like the moon

 I smile

 He never makes me wait

Twelve roses like the clock reads noon

This cinderella dances to the tune

 oh while

 there's no time to waste

Pre-chorus

 So can we just slow down

 while you make this mistake

 just slow down

 so my heart don't break

Chorus

It's like your

flying through the sky in a big airliner

looking at me with those dark brown eyes

 you say

 I'll be forever yours

coming undone and my seams unravel

you know that I love you but my heart won't travel

 but I'll still be yours

Verse

Sitting in his car and it's two a.m.

he's holding me like this will never end

I try

 I try to hide my tears

Quarter to three and he's got to leave

a last goodbye and a kiss on my cheek I

won't forget these years

Pre-chorus

 So can we just slow down

 while you make this mistake

 just slow down

 so my heart don't break

Chorus

It's like your

flying through the sky in a big airliner

looking at me with those dark brown eyes

 you say

 I'll be forever yours

coming undone and my seams unravel

you know that I love you but my heart won't travel

 but I'll still be yours

Bridge

 So can we just slow down

 while you make this mistake

 just slow down

 so my heart don't break

Chorus

Repeat twice):

It's like your

flying through the sky in a big airliner

looking at me with those dark brown eyes

 you say

 I'll be forever yours

coming undone and my seams unravel

you know that I love you but my heart won't travel

 but I'll still be yours

(Let the chords ring in this part) :

The seventeenth came way too soon

now I'm staring at this empty room

 he said

 I'll be forever yours
