Forever Everyday Chords & Lyrics - Lee Ann Womack

CAPO: 1st Fret

INTRO: [G] [C] [G] [C] [G]

I knew this kid, his name was [C]Michael [Em]
He was [D]only four years [C]old [G]
We sat on a rock and started [C]talking [Em]
And he told me [D]things I didn't know[C]
He said,[G] yesterday he was an [C]Indian [Em]
And how he [D]played with buffalo[C] [G]
And I got a sense that he had [C]been there [Em]
And he made me [D]really wanna go[G]

[CHORUS]
Remember [C]waiting all year for December
Thought god was [G]crying when it rained
And that the [Em]stars were fire[D]flies
Dreams were [C]real and big as [G]life
It was for[Am]ever_[D]_ every[G]day

INTERLUDE: [G] [C] [G] [C] [G]

I was tucking in my [C]little girl [Em]
She held my [D]hand and we said a prayer[C]
And I prayed[G] , "Bless Grandma with the [C]angels"
And she said,[Em] "Hey Mom, she's [D]standing over [G]there"
Well, I couldn't see her, but I don't [C]doubt it [Em]
Maybe 'cause I'm [D]older and less [C]wise [G]
What if heaven’s all a[C]round us [Em]
But only [D]seen through children's [C]eyes

[CHORUS]

Remember waiting all year for December
Thought god was [G]crying when it rained
And that the [Em]stars were fire[D]flies
Dreams were [C]real and big as [G]life
It was for[Am]ever_[D]_ every[G]day

[BRIDGE]
But [Am7]they say when you're [G]old, you're a [C]child again
But [Am7]do we have to [G]wait 'till [C]then_[D]___[G]__

[CHORUS]
Remember [C]waiting all year for December
Thought god was [G]crying when it rained
And that the [Em]stars were fire[D]flies
Dreams were [C]real and big as [G]life
It was for[Am]ever_[D]_ every[G]day
