NEEDTOBREATHE - Be here long Chords

[chorus]
Am                 G
Close my eyes and think of you
C                 F
Go to sleep and dream of you
Am              G        C
We don't get to be here long
Am              G
I gave you the best of me
C                      F
Loved you more than anything
    Am              G         C     Am  G  C  F
But we don't get to be here long
Am              G        C
We don't get to be here long

[verse 1]
                F
And though my heart may be in pieces
G   Am             G        C
My eyes are still set on you
              F
And though I can't keep it together
G  Am            G        C
I know that you want me, too
           F
Oh, I'm swimming in the grief
            G   Am              G       C
And there's no anchor that can hold me down
         F
I don't want any relief
           G    Am          G         C
Cause I don't wanna let you go right now

[chorus]
Am                 G
Close my eyes and think of you
C                 F
Go to sleep and dream of you
Am              G        C
We don't get to be here long
Am              G
I gave you the best of me
C                      F
Loved you more than anything
    Am              G         C
But we don't get to be here long

[verse 2]
              F
Though your moments were a charity
 G    Am               G        C
They gave me more than I could use
   F                          G
I know you found the promise land
    Am                       G      C
But I'm still here and I'm missing you

[chorus]
Am                 G
Close my eyes and think of you
C                 F
Go to sleep and dream of you
Am              G        C
We don't get to be here long
Am              G
I gave you the best of me
C                      F
Loved you more than anything
    Am              G         C
But we don't get to be here long

[bridge]
Dm  C                  Am  G
 When the day comes  and the fire is out
Dm  C                 Am
 I wanna know that I gave you all,
 G
I gave you all I had
Dm  C                  Am  G
  When the day comes  and the fire is out
Dm  C                  Am             G
 I wanna know that I gave you my everything

[chorus]
Bm                 A

D                 G
Go to sleep and dream of you
    Bm              A        D
But we don't get to be here long

Bm              A
I gave you the best of me
D                      G
Loved you more than anything

Oh, we don't get to be here long
