Verse:
D
When you think no one is watching
F#m E
I'm watching only you
D
When you feel no one listening
F#m E
I hear through the noise to hear you
D
If you're looking for the demons
F#m E
To play while with your own
D
Then you should look no further
F#m E
Here with me you'll never have to be alone
 
Pre Chorus:
D
Your shoulder blades
 
Your eyes ablaze
 
The way you throw your head back
F#m
When you're losing faith
E
But finding hope
D
It lights your face
 
That helps me cope
F#m E D
Through all of this without a kiss
F#m E D
And I get through all of this without a kiss
 
Chorus:
F#m
From the atlas
E D
Take me far
F#m
Leave me reckless
E D
Off the map
 
Turn the paper
F#m E
Don't bring me back
 
D
My eyes see you
F#m E
I see you but you don't see me
D
My eyes see you
F#m E
I see you but you don't see me
D
My eyes see you
F#m E
I see you but you don't see me
D
My eyes see you
F#m E
I see you but you don't see me
 
Verse:
D
Do you feel how I'm feeling
F#m E
My cup is half empty
D
You can crush all the parts
F#m E
And break them in half for me
D
Stop the words on my tongue
F#m E
From cutting my mouth to pieces
D
Cover your eyes
F#m E
Because I don't know what this is
 
Pre Chorus:
D
Your shoulder blades
 
Your eyes ablaze
 
The way you throw your head back
F#m
When you're losing faith
E
But finding hope
D
It lights your face
 
That helps me cope
F#m E D
Through all of this without a kiss
F#m E D
And I get through all of this without a kiss
 
Chorus:
F#m
From the atlas
E D
Take me far
F#m
Leave me reckless
E D
Off the map
 
Turn the paper
F#m E
Don't bring me back
 
D
My eyes see you
F#m E
I see you but you don't see me
D
My eyes see you
F#m E
I see you but you don't see me
D
My eyes see you
F#m E
I see you but you don't see me
D
My eyes see you
F#m E D
I see you but you don't see me
