I was listening to this song yesterday, and I picked up its chords easily...
them I entered here to confirm, and I played the current version... and it didn't
sound well... so I'm sending mine to correct that... but thanks to the one who
tried anyway... here we go:

Chords:

C - x32010 or x35553 (most used)
C7 - x35353 or x032310 (most used)
F - 133211
G - 320033 or 355433 (most used)

The stuff:

C, G, F, G, C

C G
I want it now, I want it now
F G C
Not the promises of what tomorrow brings
C G
I need to live in dreams today
F G C
I'm tired of the songs that sorrow sings

C7 F
And I want more than I can get
G
Just trying to, trying to, trying to forget

C G
I'd walk to you through rings of fire
F G C
and never let you know the way I feel
C G
Under skin is where I hide
F G C
The love that always gets me on my knees

C7 F
And I want more than I can get
G
Just trying to, trying to, trying to forget

Nothing ever lasts forever
C
Nothing ever lasts forever

Nothing ever lasts forever

Nothing ever lasts forever

I want it now, I want it now
F G C
Don't tell me that my ship is coming in
C G
Nothing comes to those who wait
F G C
Time's running out the door you're running in

C7 F
So I want more than I can get
G
Just trying to, trying to, trying to forget

F
Nothing ever lasts forever
C
Nothing ever lasts forever
F
Nothing ever lasts forever
C G
Nothing ever lasts forever

C, F

C F
All the shadows and the pain

Are coming to you...

"I'd walk to you through rings of fire And never let you know the way I feel " Two of the most perfect lines I've ever heard in a song. Sums up unrequited love better than anything.

this song is amazing, it's been one of my favorites for years now... one of my many themes! to me, it's about wanting to seize the day, take chances, live life like it's your last day in it... yet being surrounded by people who are always saying "maybe someday." "don't tell me that my ship is coming in nothing comes to those who wait time's running out the door you're running in," my favorite lines from this song, which sum up how I feel about life. patience is a virtue, I am so damn patient over everything, but sometimes I wish i didn't have to be, because while I'm being patient, chances are flying by. so many people want to put everything off until some day way off in the future...they're always saying "let's wait until later." me, though...I'm well aware of the fact that when I die, it's game over. I'm also aware of the fact I could die any day, any time... so "later" isn't something I say. if I want to do or say something, I'll do my best to accomplish it at the time, because "later" may never come.

a seize the moment and live now song, but tinged with sadness that in fact life never really delivers what is in our dreams. an array a great lyrics and a wonderful tune. One of Ian's beter songs from his later period.

It's a wonderful song! It's like everyone says; That life never turns out exactly the way you want/dream it to do, just seize the moment and don't think ahead, or back, at what could have happened or can! 1
