Forever
written by Billy Bob Thornton and Marty Stuart
from the album "Private Radio"
Corrections welcome.   Tabbed 5/6/05
NOTE: During verses, Marty Stuart hammers on an E/G, Esus2 and Esus4 at a somewhat random
pace; it was too hard to figure out for me to put it down.

INTRO:  E

(Spoken)
E
Hey baby, it's me, listen I'm gonna talk fast this is long distance
Yeah I'm sittin' here at the Waffle House, smothered and covered
Yeah, Precious just set me down a glass of sweet tea, made me think about you
No, baby, she's the waitress
No, I don't know her--I never stopped in Texarkana before
Looky here, the only thing standin' between me and you now is 200 hundred miles
And a donut tire some cat named Dino is puttin' on at the Sinclair next door
Hey, don't cry baby--oh, don't cry
Yeah Daddy's comin' home and this time it's for good
And girl I'm gonna--well, I mean I'm gonna love you
What do you mean how long?


CHORUS:
    B7        A         B7        A
Forever, and ever, and ever, and ever
    B7       A          B7           A               B7
Forever, and ever, and ever is that long enough for you


(play CHORUS chords again)


(Spoken)
E
Hey baby, it's me again, hey you remember them drawers you left in the car
Yeah, the ones with the pink feathers around the edge
Now, don't you tell a soul but I got 'em on right now
And they're makin me think about you
Yeah, I was thinkin' 'bout you when the law pulled me over
They said I looked like the kinda guy that might be hidin' somethin'
And my car was swervin'
But I don't think he's ever seen a man wearin' pink panties
And under the influence of Merle Haggard
Now here it is baby, the only thing standin' between you and me
Is 25 miles and a quick stop at the Red Dot, say what?
Oh baby I already told you how long I'm gonna stay this time

CHORUS

    A        B7       A
Forever, forever, and ever and ever
    B7        A        B7             A              B7
And ever, forever, and ever is that long enough for you
    A        B7       A
Forever, forever, and ever and ever
     B7      A         B7          A                B7
And ever, forever, forever is that long enough for you
