Intro:
                    F
When love was found
           G
I kept my hope just like i'd hoped to
                 Am               G        F
Then sang to the sea for feelings deep blue.

          F
Coming down
          G
We've had problems that we've grown through
              Am                G         F
But i bet you dream of what you could do.

Verse:

   F         G        Am
At seventeen i was alright
         F               G      Am
Was like nothing i could feel inside
    F           G           Am
And wishing you were here tonight
                 F G Am
Is like holding on.
F               G          Am
But i still get to see your face, right?
                F                G           Am
And that's like nothing they can take, right?
                     F              G 
So there won't be no feeling in the firelight
Am
Hoping this will be right
F                 G           Am
Time to show your worth child.


Pre-Chorus:          
                    F                
I remember when her heart broke over stubborn shit
       G
That's no way to be living kid
    Am
The angel of death is ruthless.
                        F
And i'm always thinking summertime with the bikes out
G
pushing our luck getting whipped out
Am
Days with nothing but laughing loud.

                             F
Underneath my coat won't you tap my shoulder, hold my hand
G
Nights with nothing but dark in there
Am
You can be my armour then.

F
Islands smiles and cardigans
    G
The nights that we've been drinking in
      Am
We're here to help you kill all of this hurt that you've been harbouring.
  
   F
Confessions should be better planned
  G
Alone, that night, I'm surely damned
Am
Run away, I'll understand.


Chorus:
                         F
What's important is this evening i will not forget
G
Purple, blue, orange, red
      Am
These colours of feeling, give me love, I'll put my heart in it.

  F
I think about it all the time
    G
The lights went out, you were fine
    Am
You kinda struggle not to shine.

                         F
I still love you though, 
                         G
I still love you though, 
                  Am
I still love you always. 
 
                        F                     
So hold me when I'm home, 
                       G
keep the evenings long
                     Am
Crack and break and part ways.

                         F
I still love you though, 
                         G
I still love you though, 
                  Am
I still love you always. 
 

So hold me when I'm home, 
                       G
keep the evenings long
                     Am
Crack and break and part ways.


And i wonder if i can let it down.
