E|----------------------------------------------15--14-12--8--------------



Guitar 1 repeats itself when it can be bothered throughout.



Most of the vibratos are to keep your fingers happy throughout, except for the 

one on fret 14 in the fast bit.



Guitar 2 does this next bit when he repeats the chorus twice, at some point, 

still with fuzz/ distortion/ whatever. For those of you who really wanted to 

know:

There's no time for us,
There's no place for us,
What is this thing that builds or dreams, yet slips away from us.

Who wants to live forever,
Who wants to live forever.....?
There's no chance for us,
It's all decided for us,
This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us.

Who wants to live forever.
Who dares to love forever,
When love must die.

But touch my tears with your lips,
Touch my world with your fingertips,
And we can have forever,
And we can love forever,
Forever is our today,
Who wants to live forever,
Who wants to live forever,
Forever is our today,
Who waits forever anyway?

END CHORDS





Also, carry the last E minor chord of the break into the few words of

the third verse.







It is in a different key from that on "A Kind of Magic", which is in Em.

This is in Dm and has, I think, a nicer atmosphere than the first.

You can play the single version by sliding the whole lot up 2 frets.



Key.

b - bend up one semitone.

r - release bend.

/x slide up to fret x.

x/ slide down to fret x.

h hammer on.

There's no time for us,
There's no place for us,
What is this thing that builds or dreams, yet slips away from us.

Who wants to live forever,
Who wants to live forever.....?
There's no chance for us,
It's all decided for us,
This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us.

Who wants to live forever.
Who dares to love forever,
When love must die.

But touch my tears with your lips,
Touch my world with your fingertips,
And we can have forever,
And we can love forever,
Forever is our today,
Who wants to live forever,
Who wants to live forever,
Forever is our today,
Who waits forever anyway?

There's no place for us,
What is this thing that builds or dreams, yet slips away from us.

Who wants to live forever,
Who wants to live forever.....?
There's no chance for us,
It's all decided for us,
This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us.

Who wants to live forever.
Who dares to love forever,
When love must die.

But touch my tears with your lips,
Touch my world with your fingertips,
And we can have forever,
And we can love forever,
Forever is our today,
Who wants to live forever,
Who wants to live forever,
Forever is our today,
Who waits forever anyway?

LYRICS:
Part 1
There's no time for us
There's no place for us
What is this thing that fills our dreams, yet slips away from us?
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever

Part 2
There's no chance for us
It's all decided for us
This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us

Part 3
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever?
Who dares to LOVE forever?
