[Intro: ]F#m Am Dm
F#m Am Dm
Now you know that I heart
Everything about you
F#m Am Dm
And that's why it's quite hard
To get through this alone
F#m
You're the only one
Am Dm
I can talk to about it
F#m
In my darkest night
Am Dm
I will be on my own
Em
These walls that we climb
Dm
Are hard to recognize
Em Dm
They fall when I say your name
F#m
Here we go
Am
Fast and slow
Dm
On the big chair
F#m
But we don't know
Am
Where we're going
Dm
On the big chair
F#m
Don't you know it's hard
Am Dm
Quite
In the time of confusion
F#m Am Dm
To tell you that I love you
F#m
You see it could have been me
Am
Instead of you
Dm
It could have been me
If I wanted to
F#m
But it wasn't
Am Dm
So we'll have to face the truth
Em
These walls that we climb
Dm
Are hard to recognize
Em Dm
They fall when I say your name
F#m
Here we go
Am
Fast and slow
Dm
On the big chair
F#m
But we don't know
Am
Where we're going
Dm
On the big chair
Fm Am
Time to pull the shutters down
Fm Em
Breakin' clouds don't make a sound
F#m Am Dm
F#m Am Dm
F#m
Here we go
Am
Fast and slow
Dm
On the big chair
F#m
But we don't know
Am
Where we're going
Dm
On the big chair
F#m Am Dm
Big chair, big chair, big chair...
