Notes:
Dave plays this song on his Baritone B E A D F# B
This version is transcribed for standard tuning E A D G B E
"One last kiss one only
Then I'll let you go
Hard for you I've fallen
But you can't break my fall
I'm broken don't break me
When I hit the ground
Some devil some angel
Has got me to the bones
You said always and forever
Now I believe you baby
You said always and forever
Is such a long and lonely time.."

LYRICS
One last kiss / One only
Then I'll let you go
Hard for you / I've fallen
But you can't break my fall
I'm broken / Don't break me
When I hit the ground
Some devil / Some angel
Has got me to the bones
You said always and forever
Now I believe you, baby
You said always and forever
Is such a long and lonely time
Too drunk and / still drinking
It's just the way I feel
It's all right / Is what you told me
'Cause what we had was so beautiful
But I feel heavy / Like floating
At the bottom of the sea
You said always and forever
Now I believe you, baby
You said always and forever
Is such a long and lonely time
Some devil is / stuck inside of me
I cannot set it free
(I wish,) I wish I was dead and / you were grieving
Just so that you could know
Some angel is / stuck inside of me
But I cannot set you free
You said always and forever
Now I believe you, baby
You said always and forever
Such a long, lonely time
