[Intro]
D Em G D
Bm G D Em
G D
[Verse 1]
D
Each day I love you more
Em
And every time I seem to open up the door
G
I think I could be someone you adore
D
Or at least better than I used to be
[Verse 2]
D
With that things will change
Em
Like the breeze on every foolish April day
G
I could leave but some part of me would stay
D
And it would drive you mad eventually
[Chorus]
Bm G D
And only I can love you like I do
Em
And you dare to trade it all for
G D
A brighter shade of blue
[Verse 3]
D
Take my hand and close your eyes
Em
Follow me through all the politics and pride
G
I was born to be a leader in the fight
D
Of anything you dare to achieve
[Verse 4]
D
With a promise and a sigh
Em
I can only offer my entire life
G
Final breath will leave some photos and some rhymes
D
But no one here can claim eternity
[Chorus]
Bm G D
And only I can love you like I do
Em
And you dare to trade it all for
G D
A brighter shade of blue
[Instrumental Break]
Bm G D Em
G D
[Out-Chorus]
Bm G D
And only I can love you like I do
Em
And you dare to trade it all for
G D
A brighter shade of blue
