[Intro]
B F#m E (x2)
[Verse 1]
B F#m E
When i was younger i saw my daddy cry and curse at the wind.
B F#m E
He broke his own heart and I watched as he tried to re-assemble it.
B F#m E
And my mamma swore she would never let herself forget.
B F#m
And that was the day that i promised I'd never sing of love if does not
E
exist. But darling..
[Chorus]
B
You are the only exception
F#m E
You are the only exception
B
You are the only exception
F#m E B
You are the only exception
[Verse 2]
F#m E
Maybe i know somewhere deep in my soul that love never lasts.
B F#m E
And we've got to find other ways to make it alone or keep a straight face.
B F#m E
And i've always lived like this keeping a comfortable, distance.
B F#m E
And up until now i swored to myself that i'm content with loneliness,
B
'cause none of it was ever worth the risk.
[Chorus]
B
But you are the only exception
F#m E
You are the only exception
B
You are the only exception
F#m E
You are the only exception
[Bridge]
C#m B F#
C#m
I've got a tight grip on reality,
B F#
But i can't let go of whats part of me here.
C#m
I know you're leaving tomorrow, when you wake up,
B F#
Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream.
B C#m
whoa
[Chorus] (x2)
F#m E B
And i'm on my way to believing
F#m E B
And i'm on my way to believing
