   (Am)
Oh but it's some mob
Some mob that brought me here I know it is my job
To seek my fortune Nanna thank you for this mob
Remember you now you are gone
If I went away
Tropical island somewhere sunny every day
But everyone I ever cared about remained
Would I tan or would I fade?
         (Dm)
So every morning he wake
Spend his day at the daybreak
And every spoonful he take
Be of something his own make
Mountains rise and mountains fall
So just what does forever mean?
I give a smile I give a song
For one moment's eternity 
(Chorus)

So just what does Amforever mean?
I give a Dmsmile I give a songEm  
For one moment's Ameternity
(Chorus)
-Enjoy people..its a great song
