Bridge:
Em D/F# G5 Cadd9
If you take my hand, we can rewrite your song

And then melt it in the water before it ever get sung

But you're looking out for reasons why you can't trust anyone
Em D/F# G5 Cadd9
Genevieve, won't you please open up and feel the sun?

(See) You don't have to go alone
Cadd9
Genevieve, no you don't
