[Intro]
C Am Em Dm G C Am Em Dm G
[Verse 1]
Dm G C
I never got tired of your holding hand
Dm G C
I only got tired of trying to understand
Dm G Am
How I’m so different and grey
F G
I always wanted you to say
[Verse 2]
Dm G C
That everything is okay — it’s absolutely fine
Dm G C
And you always did so, to give me peace of mind
Dm G Am
But I couldn't accept it, or believe
F G
That there was something good for me
[Chorus]
C Am Em Dm G
I want a love that is perfect all the time
C Am Em Dm G
To be completely devoted, heart in my eye
C Am Em Dm G
Surely, it should be easy and effortless
C Am Em Dm G
But reality leaves me short of breath
[Riff]
C Am Em Dm G C Am Em Dm G
[Verse 3]
Dm G C
What we had was amazing, we were more than close
Dm G C
You were the one that I trusted, and who I cared for most — apart from me
Dm G Am
But our security faded away
F G
Now there is nothing left to say
[Chorus]
C Am Em Dm G
I want a love that is perfect all the time
C Am Em Dm G
To be completely devoted, heart in my eye
C Am Em Dm G
Surely, it should be easy and effortless
C Am Em Dm G
But reality leaves me short of breath
[Bridge]

I don’t wanna wait It’s filling up my brain
F Dm F Dm
I don’t wanna wait It’s filling up my brain
[Chorus]
C Am Em Dm G
I want a love that is perfect all the time
C Am Em Dm G
To be completely devoted, heart in my eye
C Am Em Dm G
Surely, it should be easy and effortless
C Am Em Dm G
But reality leaves me so short of breath
[Outro]
C Am Em Dm G C Am Em Dm G
Short of breath ’Til I’m short of
C Am Em Dm G C Am Em Dm G
breath
