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

F# minorF#m E MajorE BB
You are the only exception
F# minorF#m E MajorE
Maybe i know somewhere deep in my soul that love never lasts.
BB F# minorF#m E MajorE
And we've got to find other ways to make it alone or keep a straight face.
BB F# minorF#m E MajorE
And i've always lived like this keeping a comfortable, distance.
BB F# minorF#m E MajorE
And up until now i swored to myself that i'm content with loneliness,
BB
'cause none of it was ever worth the risk.
