[Intro]
F#  F#/F

[Verse 1]
F#
   I started driving through
    F#/F
the hills, told me to come
and get you
F#
   No words convey the way
it
F#/F
felt for me to finally hold
you
In my arms just long enough
to
 F#  F#/F
know
F#
  Know every word you're
gonna
F#/F
say before you even think
it
F#
  But somehow every joke
you
F#/F
make
                      G#m
is funnier each time around
Your laugh is such a perfect
F#    F#/F
sound

[Chorus]
      B
These butterflies lived
B6                 F#  F#maj7
a million lives to say
  B
I swear I've known you
Bm
longer than
   F# F#/F        Bmaj7
Foreeeeever and a day
  G#m
A day
  F#        F#/F
Forever and ever and a
 Bmaj7
day
  G#m
A day
              F#  F#/F
Forever and a day

[Verse 2]
F#
  I bet we already knew
our
F#/F
names before we met each
other
F#
  I bet we've sailed the
Milky
F#/F
Way, walked on the Sun
together
G#m
How could I forget those
        F#
emerald eyes?
     F#/F
They took me by surprise
          B
But suddenly, I missed
your
A#m
face
            G#m
I knew that smile from
miles away
I knew that I have loved
you

[Chorus]
   F# F#/F        Bmaj7
Foreeeeever and a day
  G#m
A day
   F#
In all my lives, I've
       F#/F
waited every time to hear
    Bmaj7
you say
     G#m
"I'm yours forever and
      F#  B G#m
a day"


[Bridge]
F#           F#/F
   I don't believe in
       Bmaj7
destiny
             G#m
But I might have to say
F#           F#/F
  Your melodies. They're
          Bmaj7
changing me
             G#m
I'm yours forever and
   F# F#/F B
a daaaaaaaay
G#m
    Oh, forever and a
F# F#/F B
daaaaaaaay
(I don't believe in
)
             G#m
I'm yours forever

The backbone of the song is F# – F#/F – Bmaj7 – G#m (I – I – IVmaj7 – ii in F♯ major). In solfa, that is doh – doh – fah – reh. Practise these 4 changes until they feel natural and you can play most of it.
