 E
The worst that I've ever been hurt in my life
      B7                A             E
The first time I ever have wanted to die
                            E7
Was the night when you told me
      A
You loved someone else
          E             F#7     B7
And you asked me if I could forget
     E          A
When I stop dreamin?
         E            B7      E    A  E
That's when I'll stop loving you
     E
You may teach a flowers to bloom in the snow
     B7                     A           E
You may take a pebble and teach it to grow
                          E7          A
You may teach all the raindrops to return to the clouds
          E              F#7       B7
But you can't teach my heart to forget
     E           A
When I stop dreamin?
         E            B7       E  A   E
That's when I'll stop loving you
