Eighteen Forever

          G     C        Em
I saw the trees change
            D             G      
That golden glittering evening
C    Em   D

       G      C       Em
I fell asleep there
                  D          
and all around me angels were 
    G      C
singing
      Em            D       G
and I dreamed I was aging away

          G  C     Em
I saw the fu-ture
            D            G        
and I still had all my close 
   C  Em D
friends
         G     C
I saw my daugh-ter
Em             D          G      C
  in love with ponies and roses
           Em            D
she looked just like her mother and
G        C             Em       
 With my heart shining through 
    D
my chest
     G              C        Em  
I provided her with light to grow
   D

G        C             Em        
 With my heart shining through my 
 D
chest
       G         C        G
I will light her way back home

[chorus]
      C         Em          D    
and I know that life may be 
      G     C
passing me by

    G
I'm here

       G     C     Em
When I awoke there
          D             G     C  
I was overcome with direction
Em  D

         G      C     Em
and as I walked home
             D          G        
I remembered lilacs and handsome 
C
nights when I
Em         D
painted my hands with gold
    G       C             Em     
And with my heart shining through
    D
 my chest
     G           C     Em    D
I illuminate the road ahead
G           C             Em    
But with my heart shining 
     D
through my chest
        G        C       G
I'm not ready to take it yet

[Chorus]

C                Em              
  and though the road has been 
   D                 G    C
laid out and now bends away
               Em          D      
can we just be still for a second 
     G   C
more?
               Em           D     
I know the road will move beneath 
               G     C
our frightened feet
           Em            D        
even if we decide not to move at 
  G
all
   C             Em         D     G
My heart shining through my chest
             C     Em    D   G
I'll put one foot ahead
        C             Em      
with my heart shining though my 
  D
chest
               G       C
I'll take your hand in mine
     Em      D           G
and lead you through the night

[chorus]
....
G        C          Em    D
 and I swear I will do my best
G        C             Em      D
 if you swear you will do your best
G          C            Em     D
 we should all swear to do our best
            G          C          
To have the time of our lives 
    G
while we're here
