intro:  C   G7

C              E         E7
  When we were young and green
Am              Fm7     Bb7
  We shared our dreams
     Em7   Am   G7
  Together
                  C
  And you were my friend...


C            E           E7
  We had our good times, pal.
Am                  Fm7   Bb7
  We thought they'd last
     Em7   Am   G7
  Forever.
                      C
  But nothing last forever--
G7                 C      E   Am  D7  G7  C
  Nothing lasts forever.


  F         D  
  Time goes by
      G      C
  And people change.
       F       G
  It's best we go our
E7
  Separate ways.
Am                    D
  And it was wrong to think our love
        (F)   Fm7
  Would never end,
     G7
  My friend.
                   C
  Nothing lasts forever
G7                 C      E   Am  D7  G7  C
  Nothing lasts forever

  F         D  
  Time goes by,
     G        C
  It takes us all.
  F       G
  Nations crumble
      E7
  and empires fall.
Am            D
  And who are we to think that
          (F)     Fm7
  We would always be?
      G7
  You see,
                   C
  Nothing lasts forever
G7                 C
  Nothing lasts forever...

C             E         E7
  I know that you'll survive
Am               Fm7   Bb7
  And you'll get by
      Em7   Am   G7
  Whatever.
                     C        E               Am  D7  G7
  Though you say goodbye-- my love will never die
                  C
  It will last forever.


  Bb6
  Your love will die
      F              C
  But mine will last forever.
