I'm sick of writing out the chords, they just repeat themselves in the
second verse and chorus.

2nd Verse:

D                   A/C#              Bm
Lying close to you feeling your heart beating,
G                            D/F#
And I wondering what you are dreaming,
Em
Wondering if it's me you are seeing,
D                         A/C#              Bm
Then I kiss your eyes and thank god we're together,
G                        D/F#                           A
I just want to stay with you in this moment forever and forever forever

Chorus:

D              A/C#            Em
I dont want to close my eyes, I don't want to fall asleep,
G                                         A
Cause I miss you baby, And I don't want to miss a thing,
D               A/C#             Em
Cause even when I dream of you, the sweetest dream will never do,
G                                        A
I still miss you baby and I don't want to miss a thing,

I don't want to miss one kiss,
