Key: :[B] (w: Paul Overstreet, Don Schlitz)
VERSE 1:
You
[B] may think that
[E] I'm talking
[B] foolish
You've
[E] heard that I'm wild and I'm
[B] free
You
[E] may wonder how I can
[B] promise you now
This
[C#] love that I'm feeling for you
[F#] always will be
VERSE 2:
[B] You're not this
[E] time that I'm
[B] killing
I'm
[E] no longer one of those
[B] guys
As
[E] sure as I live this
[B] love that I give
Is
[C#] gonna be yours till the
[F#] day that I die, oh baby
CHORUS 1:
[B] I'm gonna
[E] love you for-
[B]-ever
For-
[E]-ever and ever a-
[B]-men
As
[E] long as old men sit and
[B] talk about the weather
As
[C#] long as old women sit and
[F#] talk about old men
CHORUS 2:
If you
[B] wonder how
[E] long I'll be
[B] faithfull
I'll be
[E] happy to tell you a-
[C#]-gain
[E] I'm gonna
[F#] love you for-
[B]-ever and

[B]-men

VERSE 3:
They say that
[B] time takes it's
[E] toll on a
[B] body
Makes the
[E] young girls brown hair turn
[B] grey
But
[E] honey I don't care, I'm ain't in
[B] love with your hair
And if it
[C#] all fell out, well I'd
[F#] love you anyway
VERSE 4:
They say that
[B] time can play
[E] tricks on a
[B] memory
And
[E] people forget things that they
[B] knew
But it's
[E] easy to see it's
[B] happening to me
I've al-
[C#]-ready forgotten every
[F#] woman but you, oh darlin'
CHORUS 3:
[B] I'm gonna
[E] love you
[B] forever
For-
[E]-ever and ever a-
[B]-men
As
[E] long as old men sit and
[B] talk about the weather
As
[C#] long as old women sit and
[F#] talk about old men
CHORUS 4:
If you
[B] wonder how
[E] long I'll be
[B] faithfull
Just
[E] listen to how this song
[C#] ends
[E] I'm gonna
[F#] love you for-
[B]-ever and
[E] ever
For-
[C#]-ever and
[F#] ever a-
[B]-men
OUTRO:
[E] I'm gonna
[F#] love you, for-

[B]-ever and
[E] ever
For-
[C#]-ever and
[F# open] ever, amen
[B open]
