     A LOVER IS FOREVER    Trish Yearwood

C#              F#m     C#                       F#m           A7
   I think I understand     The reason you won't stay with me
                 F#m                                  Bm    C#
You think a ring upon your hand will solve you insecurity
                F#m             C#                          F#m  A7
So go ahead and play your games     If that's what you must do
              F#m             Bm                         F#m
Nothing here remains the same     but the way I feel for you
  Am             Gm              F#m               Em  D  Em
I can watch you walk away and I know that I'll get by
       Am               F#m             Bm            E  E  D# D C#
And I know just what to say but honey I can't tell a lie
                   F#m          C#
So figure out what you must do
                        F#m             A7
I know you think you're so damn clever
              F#m               D         Bm        F#m
You can marry any time you want    but a lover is forever
