Intro: D-A-; (4x)

  D                   A/C#
   If I hold my breath too long
        Bm         A
   Would I feel you closer to me
   D                    A/C#
   If I'm not that scared anymore
          Bm
   Would you hold me
   A
   And tell me things like never before

                 Chorus
  D           A/C#              Bm
   If I could find a failure in light
         A                       D
   How could I save myself from you
             A/C#                  Bm
   If I could smile with tears in my eyes
          A                               D
   I've picked each leaf that you left behind

   Interlude: D-A-D-A-;

  D           A/C#                  Bm
   Taking on today, hardest thing to say
      A
   I wish to have you sooner
  D                    A/C#
   I've waited for this day
                    Bm
   Now I could tell you
   A break
   Show you things that make you feel sure
 
   (Repeat Chorus)
