If for just one night
           Ebm
We could stop pretending
             Bbm
That we're never ending
        Db
Cause soon I'll have to go

Ab Eb Bbm Db
    Ab
My biggest fear in life is that the universe works
  Ebm
I guess to be blessed we had to be cursed first
  Bbm
Well obviously waiting on honesty hurts worse
  Db
Than arguing over how much the dirt's worth
   Ab
It's that type of magic when creative spurts burst
   Ebm
Can turn to a flat line from hospitalized bird chirps
    Bbm
Would you line up with me to be the first cursed?
   Db
To prove to this nervous earth the universe works

Ab
For just one night
 Ebm
Could we just stop pretending
  Bbm
That we're never ending
  Db
Cause soon I'll have to go
  Ab
These days are coming
  Ebm
To an end my friend
  Bbm
So can we just stop pretending
  Db
I'm here to stay

  Ab
All right, all right, the universe works had enough 
with the crisis
  Ebm
I'm sure that all our heads have been stuck in vice 
grips
   Bbm
When advice gets repetitive that's becuase it is
   Db
So we should stop pretending we haven't heard it before
 this
   Ab
So whoever you share life with whether it be
   Ebm
your lover, parent, grandparent, sister or brother
     Bbm
Let them know to make sure they knew
    Db
That they were appreciated for taking on the challenge 
of you

  Try, try, to get to the other side
 Bbm  Bbm               Db          Db
Rise, rise, watch your halo grow in size
Ab Ab  Ebm    Ebm           Bbm          
I, I, hope to god. That Ill never be given 
     Bbm         Db                  Db
another-personality that I will have to resign

Ab
For just one night

  Bbm
That we're never ending
  Db
Cause soon I'll have to go

  Ab                                 Ebm
Cause you didn't cherish all those times we had
             Bbm
You find yourself feeling sad
            Db
Cause I've gone away  - Let's go

Ab
For just one night
 Ebm
Could we just stop pretending
  Bbm
That we're never ending
  Db
Cause soon I'll have to go     X2
