C#m

THE FUTURE

ANNA BARNETT

INTRO:

E A E A E

VERSE:

E C#m

Once upon a time you closed your eyes

You saw my face,

C#m

You saw me smile

Clearer,

Than I could possibly be

VERSE:

E C#m

I don't mind being a fantasy

As long as you know

C#m

As long as you see

I will really

One day come for you

INSTRUMENTAL:

E C#m E C#m A B

VERSE:

E C#m

You've felt half of a whole

But I'll help you fall

C#m

Help the darkness grow

Around you

As you give in

VERSE:

To the blinding moment

C#m

Before you see the light

And realize where

C#m

You've been all your life

Has brought you,

To my arms

CHORUS:

Forget what you know

Forget what you've done

E C#m

I am yours I'll be your only one

A B

Forget what you told all those other girls

E C#m

You are now in a brand new world

A C#m

And I won't give you promises

That start in love and end in death

A C#m

I've had pain but now it's strength

And I will lead you from the brink

A B C#m

Together we will be true love

A B E E E E E E E

Together we will be

VERSE:

E E C#m

It's so simple only takes a touch

It's just a peace

C#m

And it's always enough

It's what I offer

It's what I offer to you

VERSE:

I won't display

C#m

I'll give no efforts to prove

That I am loved

C#m

And I'm in love with you

There will simply

Be my hand

CHORUS:

Forget what you know

Forget what you've done

E C#m

I am yours I'll be your only one

A B

Forget what you told all those other girls

E C#m

You are now in a brand new world

A C#m

And I won't give you promises

That start in love and end in death

A C#m

I've had pain but now it's strength

And I will lead you from the brink

A B C#m

Together we will be true love

A C#m B

Together we will be true love

BREAK:

Fight fight fight

C#m E

You must not forget the time that you were

Fine fine fine

C#m E

But so cold

Your numbness was

C#m E

It was your rock and it was your wall

A C#m E

But it kept you from finding your home

BREAK:

Fight fight fight

C#m E

You must not forget the time that you were

Fine fine fine

C#m E

But so cold

Your numbness was

C#m E

It was your rock and it was your wall

A C#m E

But it kept you from finding your home

CHORUS:

Forget what you know

Forget what you've done

E C#m

I am yours I'll be your only one

A B

Forget what you told all those other girls

E C#m

You are now in a brand new world

A C#m

And I won't give you promises

That start in love and end in death

A C#m

I've had pain but now it's strength

And I will lead you from the brink

A B C#m

Together we will be true love
