The Only Exception chords by Maria Freitas

Key:                     E B
When I was younger I saw my daddy
  F#m                E
cry and curse at the wind.
     B
He broke his own heart and
                          F#m        E
I watched as he tried to re-assemble it.
     B
And my mamma swore she would
           F#m        E
never let herself forget.
      B
And that was the day that I promised
                   F#m               E7
I'd never sing of love if does not exist.
But darling..

Chorus:
 B
You are the only exception
 F#m        E
You are the only exception
 B
You are the only exception
 F#m        E
You are the only exception

 B
Maybe I know somewhere deep in
    F#m                  E
my soul that love never lasts.
     B
And we've got to find other ways
             F#m                     E
to make it alone or keep a straight face.
    B
And I've always lived like this
           F#m         E
keeping a comfortable, distance.
    B
And up until now I swored to myself
             F#m             E
that I'm content with loneliness,

'cause none of it was ever worth the risk.

Chorus:
     B
But you are the only exception
 F#m        E
You are the only exception
 B
You are the only exception
 F#m6        E
You are the only exception

(C#m  B F#) (2x)

            C#m
I've got a tight grip on reality,
                 B                        F#
But I can't let go of what's front of me here
               C#m
I know you're leaving in the morning, when you wake up,
          B                                   F#     E
leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream.

Chorus 2x:

    A9    E               B
And I'm on my way to believing
    A    E               B
