Intro:
C/G C C/B C/G C C/B C/G Csus2 Csus2 C/G
verse
C F C/G C/B
I never told you why I'm with you
C F C/G C/B
But let's be honest I was scared
C F C/G C/B
I couldn't bear that I might lose you
C F C/G C/B
It makes my words come out confused
[Refrão] F C/G C/B
There's something in your smile
That keeps me coming back
F C/G C/B
Now something in your eyes
That makes me melt inside
F Csus2 Csus2
Something in your words
C
That makes me feel like I am safe
C/G F C C/B
And makes me know that I'm alive
verse
C F C/G C/B
So why not go after another
C F C/G C/B
Is what you asked me to explain
C F C/G C/B
Cause only your hand fits inside of mine
C F C/G C/B
As if they were a lock and key
[Refrão] F C/G C/B
Was I choking on the moment
F C/G C/B
Or did fear overcome love
F Csus2
Then your eyes looked into mine
Csus2 C/G
And I knew that we were safe
G Am F C/G C/B
And I knew we were alive
Bridge
G Am
Sometimes it's just hard to say how two can feel this way
F C/G C/B
Some may call us both insane and I won't deny it
G Am
Certainty of broken hearts battles to be fought and lost
F C/G C/B
Smashing of two into one is what we desire
G Am
At the end of all of this promise me with stubborn lips
F (hold) C/G C/B C/G F
You'll know the sound of my voice as I sing this...
C C/B
So I'll sing this...
[Refrão] F C/G C/B
There's something in your smile
That keeps me coming back
F C/G C/B
Now something in your eyes
That makes me melt inside
F Csus2
Something in your words
Csus2 C
That makes me feel like I am safe
C/G
And makes me know that I'm alive
