Lyrics & Chords Die With A Smile

Lady Gaga

I, I just woke up from a dream where you and I had to say good bye

And I don't know what it all means but since I survived, I realized

Wherever you go, that's where I'll follow nobody's promised to morrow

So I'ma love you every night like it's the last night like it's the last night

If the world was ending I'd wanna be next to you

If the party was over and our time on Earth was through

I'd wanna hold you just for a while and die with a smile

If the world was ending I'd wanna be next to you

Ooh, lost, lost in the words that we scream I don't even wanna do this any more

'Cause you already know what you mean to me and our love's the only one worth fighting for

Wherever you go, that's where I'll follow nobody's promised to morrow

So I'ma love you every night like it's the last night like it's the last night

If the world was ending I'd wanna be next to you

If the party was over and our time on Earth was through

I'd wanna hold you just for a while and die with a smile

If the world was ending I'd wanna be next to you

Right next to you... ...Right next to you...

...Right next to you. ...Right next to you... Oh-oh

... ... ... ... ... ... ...

If the world was ending I'd wanna be next to you

If the party was over and our time on Earth was through

I'd wanna hold you just for a while and die with a smile

If the world was ending I'd wanna be next to you

I'd wanna be next to you
