Chorus I:
Whenever I'm weary
from the battles in my head,
You make sense of madness
when my sanity hangs by a thread,

Chorus II:
I lose my way but still you seem to understand,

Fill III:
Now and forever, I will be your man.

Chorus I (2nd time):
Sometimes I just hold you
Too caught up in me to see,
I'm holding a fortune
that heaven has given to me,

Chorus II:
I'll try to show you each and every way I can,

Fill IV:
Now and forever, I will be your man. 

Chorus III:
Now I can rest my worries
and always be sure
that I won't be alone anymore,
if I'd only known you were there 
all the time
all this time.

(Solo)

Chorus II:
Until the day the ocean doesn't touch the sand,

Fill IV:
Now and forever, I will be your man.

Ending:
Now and forever, I will be your man.

		Now & Forever
		Richard Marx


	Forgive me for posting an incomplete tab, but I'm not the
world's greatest guitarist, and this is all I've been able to figure
out so far.

Now & Forever, music and lyrics by Richard Marx

Intro: Twice the first time.

-----3-------------3-------------
-------0/1--1/3/1---------1/0----
----------------------0-------2--
-------0/2--2/4/2----------------
---2--------------------3--------
-3-------------------------------

	I'm not sure about the notation, but those 0/1 things are
supposed to be hammer-ons and pull-offs.

G   /F#      Em             Am           /G         D9/F#
Whenever I'm weary from the battles that rage in my head

G   /F#           Em              Am     /G         D9/F#
You make sense of madness when my sanity hangs by a thread

C         B7                Em      D(?)  Em/A(?)
