πΈ Verse 1:
Bm G Em
If I could put my arms around you
A G F#m
Would you remember how it feels
Bm G Em
To bask in the glow of my protection?
A G F#m
Stumble and fall head over heels
Bm G Em
If I could only find the right words
A G F#m
I'd sweep you off your feet again
N.C.
You cut the power, but mine is raging
F#m G A
A dreamer till the end
πΈ Chorus:
Bm
I'm hanging on your side of town
G Em
I notice when you're not around
A G
Can't keep my cool, I'm burning inside
F#m
A broken heartbeat, barely alive
Bm
And it's harder to breathe
G Em
'Cause I couldn't make you believe
A G
What's written in the heavens above
F#m
Can't be denied, it's bigger than love
πΈ Verse 2:
Bm G Em
The streets are dripping with decisions of a quiet kind
A G F#m
Hallucinations on the shoulder of the borderline
Bm G Em
With my experience, I'm better off just backing down
A G F#m
Instead of tripping through the pages of your side of town
Bm G Em A G
Serrated edges of the blade are scraping over the leather
F#m Em
I guess we couldn't keep it together
A F# G A
I thought we had it covered forever
πΈ Chorus:
Bm
I'm hanging on your side of town
G Em
I notice when you're not around
A G
Can't keep my cool, I'm burning inside
F#m
A broken heartbeat, barely alive
Bm
And it's harder to breathe
G Em
'Cause I couldn't make you believe
A G
What's written in the heavens above
F#m Bm
Can't be denied, it's getting harder to breathe
G Em
'Cause I couldn't make you believe
A G
What's written in the heavens above
F#m Bm G Em
Can't be denied, it's bigger than love
