Just Forget The World

The Hippos


Tom: A

Intro:

A – but only hit the 4th and 6th strings.

A
Into it all
D                       A
Everything, on our own
A               D
We don’t need anything
        A
Or anyone.

Chorus 1:

A                       E
If I lay here, if I just lay here
                D
Would you lie with me?
                        A
And just forget the world

        A
I don’t quite know,
        D
How to say,
        A
How I feel.


        A
Those three words,
                D
Are said too much.
                A
They’re not enough.

Chorus 1:

A                       E
If I lay here, if I just lay here
                D
Would you lie with me?
                        A
And just forget the world

                        A                       E
Forget what we’re told, before we get too old.
                D                               A
Show me a garden that’s burstin’ into life.

                A               D
Let’s waste time, chasin’ cars
                A
Around our heads.

                A                       D
I need your grace, to read my needs
                A
To find my own.

Chorus 1:

A                       E
If I lay here, if I just lay here
                D
Would you lie with me?
                        A
And just forget the world


                        A                       E
Forget what we’re told, before we get too old.
                D                               A
Show me a garden that’s bursting into life.

Chorus 2:

        A                       E
All that I am, all that I ever was.
                        D
It’s here in your perfect eyes,
                A
They’re all I can see.

                A                               E
I don’t know where, confused about how as well,
                        D                               A
Just know that these things will never change for us at all.

Chorus 1:

A                       E
If I lay here, if I just lay here
                D
Would you lie with me?
                        A
And just forget the world
