[Intro] x2
B F#m E
[Verse 1]
B F#m E
When I was younger I saw my daddy cry and cursed 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 momma swore that she would never let herself forget
B F#m E
And that was the day I promised Id never sing of love if it does not exist
[Chorus]
E
But darlin,
B
You are the only exception
F#m E
You are the only exception
B
You are the only exception
B7 E
You are the only exception
[Verse 2]
B 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 had sworn to myself that I'm content with loneliness
Because none of it was ever worth the risk, but
[Chorus]
B
You are the only exception
F#m E
You are the only exception
B
You are the only exception
B7 E
You are the only exception
[Bridge] x2
C#m B F#
C#m
I've got a tight grip on reality but I can't
B F#
Let go of what's in front of me here
C#m
I know your leaving in the morning, when you wake up
B F# E
Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream
[Chorus]
B
You are the only exception
F#m E
You are the only exception
B
You are the only exception
B7 E
You are the only exception
B
You are the only exception
F#m E
You are the only exception
B
You are the only exception
B7 E
You are the only exception
[Outro]
