verse :

cmaj7   em        fmaj7       cmaj7
i can't stand by, and see you destroyed

cmaj7   em         fmaj7       cmaj7
i can't be here, and watch you burn up

cmaj7   em        fmaj7       cmaj7
lie for the moment and lie as a decoy

cmaj7   em        fmaj7       cmaj7
and does it matter if i give in easy

fmaj7                         g
so why, is it so hard to get by, and i say


chorus:

fmaj7   g     em             fmaj7
we so down, but it's now or never baby

fmaj7     g     em            fmaj7
we don't mind, if this don't last forever

fmaj7    g    em           fmaj7
see the light, but it won't last forever

fmaj7      g    em              fmaj7
seize the time, cause it's now or never baby


verse:

cmaj7   em        fmaj7                 cmaj7
let's leave at sunrise, let's live by the ocean

cmaj7   em      fmaj7      cmaj7
i don't mind if we never come home at all

cmaj7      em        fmaj7    cmaj7
steal the morning so set in motion

cmaj7   em    fmaj7         cmaj7
in and out of love and institutions

        fmaj7                      g
cause i know this can't last for long, and i say


chorus:

fmaj7   g     em             fmaj7
we so down, but it's now or never baby

fmaj7     g     em            fmaj7
we don't mind, if this don't last forever

fmaj7    g    em           fmaj7
see the light, but it won't last forever

fmaj7      g    em              fmaj7
seize the time, cause it's now or never baby
