C G
Hit the ground, hit the ground, hit the ground, oh oh
F
Only sound, only sound that you hear is "No"
You never saw it coming
Slipped when you started running
C G
And now you've come undone and I, I, I, I
C G
Seen you fall, seen you crawl on your knees, eh eh
F
Seen you lost in a crowd, seen your colors fade
Wish I could make it better
Someday you won't remember
C G
This pain you thought would last forever and ever
D
There you'll stand, ten feet tall
A
I will say, "I knew it all along."
G
Your eyes–wider than distance
Bm A
This life–sweeter than fiction
C G
Just a shot, just a shot in the dark, oh oh
F
All you got, all you got are your shattered hopes
They never saw it coming
You hit the ground running
C G
And now you're onto something, I, I, I say
C G
What a sight, what a sight when the light came on
F
Proved me right, proved me right when you proved them wrong
And in this perfect weather
It's like we don't remember
C G
The rain we thought would last forever and ever
D
There you'll stand, ten feet tall
A
I will say, "I knew it all along."
G
Your eyes–wider than distance
Bm A
This life is sweeter than fiction
D
There you'll stand, next to me
A
All at once, the rest is history
G
Your eyes-wider than distance
Bm A
This life is sweeter than fiction, fiction
D
I'll be one of the many saying,
Bm
"Look at you now, look at you now, now."
G
I'll be one of the many saying,
A
"You made us proud, you made us proud, proud."
D
I'll be one of the many saying,
Bm
"Look at you now, look at you now, now."
G
I'll be one of the many saying,
A
"You made us proud, you made us proud, proud."
D
And when they call your name
Bm
and they put your picture in a frame
G
You know that I'll be there time and again
A
'Cause I loved you when, when you
D
Hit the ground, hit the ground, hit the ground, oh oh
A
Only sound, only sound that you heard was "No"
Bm
Now in this perfect weather
It's like we don't remember
D
The rain we thought would last forever and ever (forever)
D
There you'll stand, ten feet tall
A
I will say, "I knew it all along."
G
Your eyes–wider than distance
Bm A
This life is sweeter than fiction
D
There you'll stand next to me
A
All at once, the rest is history
G
Your eyes–wider than distance
Bm A
This life is sweeter than fiction, fiction
A
It's sweeter than fiction
G
It's sweeter, yeah
Bm A
It's sweeter than, sweeter
D
Sweeter than fiction
