Bm D
Can?t change the one you are
A
Can?t change the one you love
F#m D
Lower your guard
Bm D
I?ve made a few mistakes
A
I?ll tell you what it takes
D
Under the stars
G D
Have you seen the other me at times?
G D
Walking on an ever looser line
D
Baby this is a wake
Bm
You and I will not escape
F#m A
As time goes by
D
The world?s never been older
Bm
Your head on my shoulder
F#m A
So close your eyes
Stung by normality
Wronged by your family
Conventions aside
Cannot change the one you love
From inside ? or from above
Just hold him tight
Walking on an ever looser line
But love has let me over every time
Baby we?re on a wake
You and I will not escape
Just close your eyes
The world?s never been older
Your head on my shoulder
As time goes by
Baby this is a wake
None of us will escape
Who we are
The world?s never been older
Your head on my shoulder
