Guitar chords with lyrics

Capo on 3rd

Verse 1
D                    Am
Love, if you're near
        A
Don't tell it like it is
            A                A          D
'Cause I don't know how to hear
        Am
Or to learn
            A
'Cause I wanna be in love
            A        A              D
Without being loved in return
                    Am
But hold me close
            A
'Cause I wanna feel your fire
       A          A         D
Like signals on the coast
              Am
And let it rage
            A
Like the end of everything
          A         A         D
In this epoch, in this age

Chorus
            Am                               D
There is only you and me in this life
                 A                        D       D
And I don't wanna **** it up now
            Am                               D
There is nothing for me in these past lives
            A                D              D
There is only what I wasn't yet
           Am                               D
And if I made a mess of everything dear
               A                               D     D
By being scared of what you give me
        Am                  D
I F#m  sorry unequivocally
        A                          D
I just don't know how to love

Verse 2
D           Am
 Let me leave
      A
The part of me behind
       A      A            D
That only wants to grieve
                Am
And in this light
        A
I can see you as you are
           A         A          D
In your frailty, in your might

Chorus
            Am                               D
There is only you and me in this life
                 A                        D       D
And I don't wanna **** it up now
            Am                               D
There is nothing for me in these past lives
            A                D              D
There is only what I wasn't yet
           Am                               D
And if I made a mess of everything dear
               A                               D     D
By being scared of what you give me
        Am                  D
I F#m  sorry unequivocally

I just don't know how to love

And I don't wanna **** it up now
            Am                               F/Em
There is nothing for me in these past lives
