Verse 1:
A                                  G
When I was younger, I saw my daddy cry
                 D
And curse at the wind
A

He broke his own heart and I watched
               G           D
As he tried to re-assemble it
  A
And my momma swore
                         G          D
That she would never let herself forget
   A
And that was the day that I promised
                  G                      D
I'd never sing of love if it does not exist

Chorus:
             A
But darling, you are the only exception
G           D
You are the only exception
A
You are the only exception
G           D
You are the only exception

A A

Verse 2:
A                                 G
Maybe I know somewhere deep in my soul
                D
That love never lasts
    A                                        G
And we've got to find other ways to make it alone
                   D
Or keep a straight face
    A
And I've always lived like this
          G           D
Keeping a comfortable distance
A
And up until now I had sworn to myself
           G                D
That I'm content with loneliness
D
Because none of it was ever worth the risk

Chorus:
    A
But you are the only exception
G           D
You are the only exception
A
You are the only exception
G           D
You are the only exception

Bm Bm A E

          Bm
I've got a tight grip on reality
                A                           E
But I can't let go of what's in front of me here
             Bm
I know you're leaving in the morning when you wake up
         A                                  E
Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream

Chorus:
A
You are the only exception
G           D
You are the only exception
A
You are the only exception
G           D
You are the only exception
A
You are the only exception
G           D
You are the only exception
A
You are the only exception
G           D
You are the only exception
G             D
And I'm on my way to believing

A (Ring Out)
