Intro:

C9 D7 Em7 G

    C9         D7      EM7       G
We're both looking for something
    C9        D7     EM7       G
We've been afraid to find
     C9   D7      EM7       G
It's easier to be broken
    C9   D7    EM7
It's easier to hide

 C9              D7
Looking at you, holding my breath
  C9                 D7
For once in my life I'm scared to death
 C9                  D7         EM7     G
G
I'm taking a chance letting you inside

    C9                D7    EM7
I'm feeling alive all over again
    C9               D7      EM7
As deep as the sky, under my skin
    C9                   D7           EM7            GD7 G
Like being in love, she says, for the first time
    C9                D7      EM7
Maybe I'm wrong, I'm feeling right
    C9          D7      EM7
Where I belong with you tonight
    C9                D7           EM7         G
G
Like being in love to feel for the first time

C9 D7 EM7 G

   C9          D7       EM7     G
The world that I see inside you
  C9      D7      EM7    G
Waiting to come to life
 C9      D7    EM7     G
Waking me up to dreaming
 C9     D7      EM7
Reality in your eyes


 C9              D7
Looking at you, holding my breath
  C9                 D7
For once in my life I'm scared to death
 C9                  D7         EM7    G D7 G
I'm taking a chance letting you inside

    C9                D7           EM7         G
G
Like being in love to feel for the first time

C9
We're crashing
D7
Into the unknown
EM7
We're lost in this
G
But it feels like home

    C9                D7    EM7
I'm feeling alive all over again
