The Words chords by Christina Perri

Standard Tuning
No Capo


Intro: E B F# x2


          E      B       F#
All of the lights land on you
                E      B         F#
The rest of the world fades from view
               E      B    D      F#      D       B      F#
And all of the love I see please, please say you feel it too
               E       B     F#
And all of the noise I hear inside
             E        B         F#
Restless and loud, unspoken and wild
                 E       B
And all that you need to say
           D       F#
To make it all go away
            D        B        F#
Is that you feel the same way too

Chorus:
      F#                                B
And I know the scariest part is letting go
                                Db
Cause love is a ghost you can?t control
                                      Abm
I promise you the truth can?t hurt us now
            B         Db          F#
So let the words slip out of your mouth



               E           B          F#
And all of the stairs that lead me to you
               E      B           F#
And all of the hell I had to walk through
      E        B                   D         F#
But I wouldn?t trade a day for the chance to say
    D          B         F#
My love I?m in love with you




Chorus:
      F#                                B
And I know the scariest part is letting go
                                Db
Cause love is a ghost you can?t control
                                      Abm
I promise you the truth can?t hurt us now
            B         Db          F#
So let the words slip out of your mouth




Ebm                D
I know that we?re both afraid
                 F#
We both made the same mistakes
        Abm                          Ebm
An open heart is an open wound to you
                     D
And in the wind of a heavy choice
           F#
Love has a quiet voice
          Abm                    B
Still you mind, now I?m yours to choose




Chorus:
      F#                                B
And I know the scariest part is letting go
                                         Db
Let my love be the light that guides you home


      F#                                B
And I know the scariest part is letting go
                                Db
Cause love is a ghost you can?t control
                                      Abm
I promise you the truth can?t hurt us now
            B         Db          F#
