Standard

Intro: G-Em-C x2

G
I'll say goodnight,
                                   Em
In the morning I will wake up to a blinding light,
    C
And curse all my mistakes
            G
And say I'm not what you think,

I'll break all the links,
      Em                C
I'll ignore all the exit signs

       G
Cause you've had your own mountains to climb
    Em                    C
And I've got skeletons I hide,
        G
In the back of my mind where I question myself,
   Em                           C
I dwell on the past just like everyone else

     Em                       C               G
Don't bear the weight of the world on your shoulders,
          C
It's not too heavy
 Em                    C                      G            C
I'll break my back so you can feel like someone's on your side

  G
Forget the past and all the heartache,
     Em
The growing pains that keep you awake,
G
I'll sing you to sleep
                C
With songs that let you know that we'll be ok
G
Round and round and round this goes,
Em
Playing on your stereos,
     G
When I'm away and you can't sleep,
     C
Just know that it's the same for me


Interlude: G-Em-C x2

     G                                    Em
And every time I see you I remember why I made you mine
 C
That day in mid-December,
           G
Still so young and naïve with our hearts on our sleeves,
       Em               C
But I know we'll be alright

                G
They don't know what we share in the briefest of moments,
     Em                   C
I'm head over heels for the smallest components,
       G
That light in your eye or that look on your face,
   Em                 C
Secure in the fact that we both know our place

G
No one like you girl,

No one in the world
Em                  C
The perfect touch to the picture I had in my head
G
No one like you girl,

Nowhere in the world
Em                  C
That I would rather be


     Em                       C               G
Don't bear the weight of the world on your shoulders,
          C
It's not too heavy
 Em                    C                      G            C
Since we met it seems like we've crossed paths at the right time


  G
Forget the past and all the heartache,
     Em
The growing pains that keep you awake,
G
I'll sing you to sleep
                C
With songs that let you know that we'll be ok
G
Round and round and round this goes,
Em
Playing on your stereos,
     G
When I'm away and you can't sleep,
     C
Just know that it's the same for me
