Intro:

(Play fig. 1)

......If one could

C

Stop time, or make it up

F C

If two could realize the best of luck

Em F

If I could locate a god above

G7 Am

And you only wanted to be loved

Dm Em

Then I'd try to hang on to the past

F G7

But you know that nothing, oh no nothing lasts

(Play fig.1)

Nothing lasts .....It's time to

C

Move on, let the past go

F C

I waited for you here, but you never showed

Em F

Although I asked you to let me know

G7 Am

I only felt a cold wind blow

Dm Em

While I tried to hang on to the past

F G7

But you know that nothing, oh no nothing lasts

(Play first four measures of fig. 1)

Am C

Nothing's in your way

F G7

Now you can stand right up and run

Am C

Wouldn't even change things

F G7

If you took back what you've done

Dm Em

I have tried to hang on to the past

F G7

But I couldn't keep my grasp, cause nothing lasts

(Play the first four measures of fig.1 3X)

Nothing lasts

(Play four measures of C, and end on Cmaj7)

Nothing lasts
