Tom: E
E
I wish I had
F#m
Been ready for you
E
We could have done all those things
F#m
That lovers do
A
But I wouldn’t let you in
E
You had to wait in the dark
B
All of those years
Wonderin’ when it would start
E F#m
E
So new, having something to say
C#m
But the shade grows large…
in the face of the way
F#m
I stick my head in the sand
Hope it all goes away
B
Like I always have
[Verse 2]
E
I wish I had
F#m
Been ready for you
E F#m
cuz I love your heart, your shakin’ body too
A
But I wouldn’t let you in
E
You had to wait in the dark
B
All of those years
Wonderin’ when it would start
E
So I’m gettin’ used
To droppin’ my pride
C#m
I lay it all out for you
I put it all on the line
F#m
I take the right way now
Instead of the wrong way out
B B C
For that first time
[Chorus]
C#m A E
Nothin’ was a mistake
B B C
You learn to love along the way
C#m A
You'll bend or you'll break
E B B C
Either way your life is made
C#m A
Cuz you cannot fall through the cracks
E B B C
Cuz we’ll be there to bring you back
C#m A
And hold you til the dark is through
E B
In the way old lovers do
[Outro]
E F#m
Ohhh. Ohhh. xMultiple (until you feel full)
