And I'd give up forever to touch you

Cause I know that you feel me somehow

Bm A G
And I don't wanna go home right now

And all I can breathe is your life

Cause sooner or later it's over
Bm A G
I just don't wanna miss you tonight
Chorus
Bm A G
And I don't want the world to see me

I just want you to know who I am
Bm Bsus2 G x2
Then the verse and Chorus are repeated once through.
After that, there is a small solo? That links to the bridge which is:
Bm Bsus2 G x2
Then there is a small part where they harmonise and played over that is:
Bm A G
(played twice, letting each chord ring)
The bridge is then played using the same chords as the Chorus
Then it links back to the final Chorus with:
G
I just want you to know who I am
Bm A G
And I don't want the world to see me
Bm A G
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
Bm A G
When everything's made to be broken

corrections and I'll sort them ASAP! Thanks :)
