[Intro]
Cmaj7 N.C.
[Verse 1]
Cmaj7
Color myself jaded
Em
All the years I thought I’d wasted
Am7
Every song I wrote and hated
Well I guess they’re worth it now
Em E
I am learning to take things in stride
Am
I am finding myself in the words that I write
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
I’m watching you across the room
E
Your weathered eyes poured out like glue
Am7
Over this sleeping town
Am Fmaj7 Cmaj7
And I couldn’t help but smile as you bit your lip and riled up the boys for miles around
F
I had no doubts
You had me in the clouds
[Chorus]
Cmaj7
And I said “oh no, tell me you won’t go
We could stay up all night, talk until the sunrise
Fmaj7
I could think of nothing better, than you and me together
Cmaj7
And if you’d give me just a chance to prove you’re everything I need
Fmaj7
If you’d follow my lead, the weight the world wouldn’t feel so heavy”
[Interlude]
Cmaj7 N.C.
[Verse 2]
Cmaj7
Color myself jaded
Em
All the times where I just waited
Am7
Not to feel so alienated, well I guess those days are gone
Em E
I’m starting to feel alright
Am
With your help and your hand I will be just fine
[Pre-Chorus]
Em E
It felt like time slowed down, I felt my heartbeat twice as loud
Am7 Am
As my feet began to move
Fmaj7 Cmaj7
And I snapped out of this trance, when I saw that you caught my glance
F
And there was nothing left to do, I walked up to you
Cmaj7
And I told you the truth
[Chorus]
Cmaj7
And I said “oh no, tell me you won’t go
We could stay up all night, talk until the sunrise
Fmaj7
I could think of nothing better, than you and me together
Cmaj7
And if you’d give me just a chance to prove you’re everything I need
Fmaj7
If you’d follow my lead, the weight the world wouldn’t feel so heavy”
[Bridge]
(strum, then pick the notes from bottom up, then occationaly back down)
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Am7 Em
Cmaj7
You looked towards the floor
Fmaj7 Cmaj7
Cheeks flushed and smiling, you warmed me to the core
Fmaj7 N.C.
You laughed and shut the door
Cmaj7
You said “You were in my dreams, now you are in my arms
Fmaj7
I’m learning to wait out the weather, to never, oh never, say never
Cmaj7 Am7
You were in my dreams, I feared of false alarms
Fmaj7 N.C.
I can think of nothing better than you and me together
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
Just tell me you won’t go, we could stay up all night pretend we won’t grow old
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
Just tell me you won’t go, we’ll talk until the sunrise warms our winter bones
(At the very end, strum the Fmaj7 when he says "warms" then strum a cmaj7 to end the entire song.)
