This is how I play it solo acoustic. On the album, the song is in the key of C#, so I
with a capo on the 6th fret and form the chords as if it were in G. I'm fairly sure this
NOT how it's done on the album, but it sounds good to me. Corrections welcome.

INTRO:
VERSE
G G/f#
I've looked for love in stranger places
but never found someone like you
someone whose smile
G/f#
makes me feel I've been holding back
and now there's nothing I can do
CHORUS:
cause this is real, and this is good
it warms the inside just like it should
but most of all
most of all, it's built to last
it's built to last
VERSE:
all of our friends
saw from the start
so why didn't we believe it too?
now look, where we are
you're in my heart now
and there's no escaping it for you
CHORUS:
cause this is real, and this is good
it warms the inside just like it should
but most of all
most of all, it's built to last
walking on the hills at night
G G/f#
with those fireworks and candlelight
you and i were made to get love right
CHORUS:
cause this is real, and this is good
it warms the inside just like it should
but most of all
most of all, it's built to last
cause you are the sun in my universe
consider the best when we felt the worst
and most of all, most of all
most of all, most of all,
most of all, most of all
it's built to last
