Intro: C Am Em G
verse 1:
C
You made your way in as I was leaving
Am
You cut in line just as I was getting my stuff
Em
And I couldn't decide if you were the most annoying human being I'd ever met
G
Or just the best thing that ever happened, just the best thing that ever happened
C
You took the key out of the ignition
Am
I could hear the rain on the windows
Em
Right then and there I made up my mind to just go with it
Thinking what's the worst thing that could happen?
G
When the worst thing that could happen, could be the best thing ever
Chorus:
C
We're not forever
You're not the one
Am
We're not forever
You're not the one
Em
We're not forever
You're not the one
G
You and I could be the best thing ever
C
We're not happy ever after
Am
We don't got what it takes
And we don't make plans
Em
Cause we're never gonna last
We're not forever
You're not the one
G
You and I, we're a time
C
Bomb bomb bomb bomb
Am
Bomb bomb bomb bomb

We're not forever
You're not the one

You and I, we're a timebomb
verse 2:
C
I shut the door and never looked back

Em
When something this good comes along you're better off letting the first time be the
last time
But really, what's the worst thing that could happen

When the worst thing that could happen, could be the best thing ever

C
We're not forever
You're not the one

We're not happy ever after

We don't got what it takes
And we don't make plans

You're not the one

You and I, we're a time

You're not the one
