D Em
girl look at you right there
G
with that wind in your hair
A
like a dream in the sunset light
D Em
i couldn’t love you anymore
G
i couldn’t need you any less
A
i guess i’m doing something right
Em A
but girl you gotta promise me
Em A
that if you ever have to leave
( chorus )
D Em
baby lie to me ’cause i couldn’t stand the truth
G A
and i couldn’t bear the thought of losin’ you
D Em
baby lie to me , tell me everything’s all right
G A
and when i’m sound asleep , you can fade into the night
Em A
girl , instead of sayin’ goodbye
D Em G A

( verse 2 )
D Em
last night when i saw you in a dream
G
you were packin’ your things
A

Em A
so if there ever comes a day
Em A
