Intro: G
G D
If I came to you empty handed
Em C
A barren ocean with nothing at all
G D
And if I came to you empty hearted
Em C
Searching for pieces after the fall
C G
All I've ever known is how to hide a secret
D
But I'm tired of going on without believing
Em
That love is not illusion
Bm D
Love illuminates the blind
C G D
If I-I fell into you
Em
Would it be close enough?
C G D
If I-I finally let you in
Em D C
Would you show me what love is?
G D Em C
If I had nothing to give
G D
If you came to me empty handed
Em C
I'd brave your ocean to bring you home
G D
And if you came to me empty hearted
Em C
I'd find the pieces to make you whole
C G D
If I-I fell into you
Em
Would it be close enough?
C G D
If I-I finally let you in
Em D C
Would you show me what love is?
C G
If I had nothing to give
D
If I am a promise
A C G
Will you let me break again
D
I will be your compass
A C
I will only let you bend
C G
All I've ever known is how to hide a secret
D
But I'm tired of going on without believing
Em
That love is not illusion
Bm D
Love illuminates the blind
C G D
If I-I fell into you
Em
Would it be close enough?
C G D
If I-I finally let you in
Em D C
Would you show me what love is?
G D Em C
If I had nothing to give
G
If I had nothing to give
