It is, kind of bittersweet,
like the smile one would have when they know they've
given it their all,
but the smile can't change, that the game has been lost,
that smile is
the only thing you've got,
C#m B A E
but it's enough,
C#m B A
to move on.
Chorus:
E Emaj7 C#m B
And i could spend forever in your eyes,
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/spencer_schmidt/bittersweet_tab.html ]
A E A B
I could spend forever here tonight,
E Emaj7 C#m B
and even if you never care for me,
A E A B
i will cherish every memory,
C#m B A E
I spend with you.
Instrumental: E Emaj7 C#m B A
Asus2 A B
Verse 2: here you strum the same chords from the instrumental:
E Emaj7 C#m B
It is, kind of bittersweet,
A Asus2
like the five lines previous
A B
and the feeling felt right now,
E Emaj7
like if you heard,
C#m B
that a loved one had been lost,
A Asus2
but their last words were,
A B
i know this is my time,
C#m B A B
I am strong.
Chorus x2:
E Emaj7 C#m B
And i could spend forever in your eyes,
A E A B
I could spend forever here tonight,
E Emaj7 C#m B
and even if you never care for me,
A E A B
i will cherish every memory,
C#m B A E
I spend with you.
C#m B A
That I spend with you 2x
Here you can pick which ever is easier for you
