Intro: C G Am 2x


  C                                G                  Am
I watch your troubled eyes as you rest,

          F                        G                 C
And I fall in love with every breath

  C                                G              Am
Wonder if those eyes are really shut

             F                       G                    C
And am I the one you're dreaming of



             F                        G
'Cause underneath the darkness

                 C                          G                     Am
There's a light that's trying so hard to be seen.

         F                                 G
And I know this 'cause I've noticed

    C           G                              Am
A little bit shining through the seams.



           C        Dm       Am
And if this is what it takes,

         G                     C        Dm          Am       G
Then let me be the one to bare the pain.

           C        Dm       Am
Ooh if this is what it takes

C                                 Dm                 C        F
I'll break down these walls that are in our way,

   G
If this is what it takes.



C                              G                       Am
You keep on telling me I'm wasting time

           F                      G                        C
But to call it wasting time oh that's a crime

C                                     G                            Am
And you think it's crazy what I'm trying to do

        F                 G             C
Well baby, I'm a fool for you.



            F                        G
'Cause underneath the darkness

                C                          G                     Am
There's a light that's trying so hard to be seen

         F                        G
And I know this 'cause I've noticed

   C                          G                     Am
A little bit shining through the seams, yeah



           C        Dm       Am
And if this is what it takes

          G                     C        Dm          Am       G
Then let me be the one to bare the pain

            C        Dm       Am
Ooh if this is what it takes

C                                 Dm                 C        F
I'll break down these walls that are in our way



                       F
'Cause if you don't understand yet

               G
Then I'll never let you forget

         Am                                                  C
That you don't have to do this on your own


                  F
I'll be your shoulder to lean on

                  G
I'll be your right when you feel wrong

      Am                                                         C
So come on, take my hand, we're moving on



           C        Dm       Am
And if this is what it takes

         G                     C        Dm          Am       G
Then let me be the one to bare the pain

                  C        Dm       Am
Ooh and if this is what it takes

 C                                 Dm
Then I'll break down these walls

           Am                              F
These walls that are in our way

    G                    C
If this is what it takes.
