  A                            C#m7
1. As I stood in this smokey room, the night about to end.
2. Remember when we used to party down, in the street, out in the dark.
  G                                        D
1. I pass my time with strangers, but this bottle's my only friend.
2. Remember when we lost the keys, and you lost more than that in my backseat baby.
  A                                   C#m
3. Remember how we used to talk, about busting out — we'd break their hearts.
   G D/F#     G D
Together — Forever.

Dm                            A                 C#m
hoping it would never end.   Say goodbye, never say goodbye.

Intro x1


A                                 C#m7
Remember days of skipping school, racing cars and being cool.
        G                        D
With a six pack and the radio, we didn't need no place to go.
A                                C#m7
Remember at the prom that night, you and me we had a fight.
         G                                        D
But the band it played our favourite song, and I held you in my arms so strong.
    A                                        C#m
We danced so close, we danced so slow, and I swore I'd never let you go.
   G D/F#     G D
Together — Forever.


Again chorus with the second riff
       A                 C#m7            D
Never say goodbye, never say goodbye.   You and me and my old friends,
Dm                            A                 C#m
hoping it would never end.   Say goodbye, never say goodbye.
 D                        Dm                           A
Holdin' on we got to try, holdin' on to never say goodbye.
