C          D                C  
This years love had better last  
       D               C  
Heaven knows it's high time  
              D             G            Em  
And I've been waiting on my own too long  
C            D                C  
But when you hold me like you do  
            D  
It feels so right  
C          D  
I start to forget  
       G  
How my heart gets torn  
          Em  
When that hurt gets thrown  
        A                 C  
Feeling like you can't go on  
  
  
C       D                  C  
Turning circles when time again  
               D             
It cuts like a knife oh yeah  
C      D              G             Em  
If you love me got to know for sure  
C            D                   C  
Cos it takes something more this time  
                 D  
Than sweet sweet lies  
C        D          G  
Before I open up my arms and fall  
       Em  
Losing all control  
      A               C  
Every dream inside my soul  
  
And when you kiss me  
        G  
On that midnight street  
         Em  
Sweep me off my feet  
        A                  C  
Singing ain't this life so sweet  
  
  
C          D               C    D  C  D  G  Em  
This years love had better last  
  
  
C          D               C     D  
This years love had better last  
C               D  
'Cause who's to worry  
       G  
If our hearts get torn  
          Em  
When that hurt gets thrown  
          A                   C  
Don't you know this life goes on  
  
And won't you kiss me  
        G  
On that midnight street  
         Em  
Sweep me off my feet  
        A                  C  
Singing ain't this life so sweet  
  
  
C          D               C     D  
This years love had better last  
C          D               C     D  
This years love had better last  
C          D               C     D  
This years love had better last  
C                          G  
This years love had better last
