Intro: C G F x2

Am                      G
I saw your weeping eyes reflected
                    F
In the window of a Boeing 727.
Am
You looked down at the city,
         G
Saw it slowly growing tiny,
       D
As the sunset turned Hellʼs Kitchen into heaven.

Dm
You turned your face to me,
     G                              Am
And I tucked your hair behind your ears,
                     G
Said, nothing can go wrong,
                    C                     G        F
So long as we are together, so long as we are, so long,
                    C                     G        F
So long as we are together, so long as we are, so long.

Am                       G
And if weʼd met today, I wonder if weʼd met this way,
F
Would you have anything to say to me?
Am                                G
Stare out at the breakers, as our silence slowly stretches,
        D
And the storm clouds darken in conspiracy.

Dm                                G                 Am
You turned your face to me and I, I canʼt meet your gaze
                        G
You said nothing can go wrong,
                    C                     G        F
So long as we are together, so long as we are, so long,
                    C                     G        F
So long as we are together, so long as we are, so long.

Am G F x2

Dm              G
Kiss these lips please, stop words forming,
Dm                G
Just say youʼll stay, until the morning,
Dm         G
And if you go, just give me warning,
Dm               G
Just say youʼll stay, till the morning,
                                            F      G
(till the morning, till the morning, youʼll stay).

                    C                     G        F
So long as we are together, so long as we are, so long,
                    C                     G        F
So long as we are together, so long as we are, so long.
                    C                     G        F
So long as we are together, so long as we are, so long,
                    C                     G        F
So long as we are together, so long as we are, so long.

C G F x4
