[A] [Bm] [F#m] [A]
[F#m] [D]
[Am] [Bm]
[D] [A] I close [F#m] my eyes and I [D] smile [Am] knowing that [Bm] everything is [A] alright.
To [F#m] the core, close [D] that door.
[A] Is [Bm] this happening?
My [A] breath is on [F#m] your hair.
I'm unaware [A] that you opened the [Bm] blinds and let the [F#m] city in.
[A] God, you [F#m] held my hand [D] as we stand, [Am] taking [Bm] in everything.
[D] And I knew it from the start, [A] so my arms are open wide.
[Bm] Your head is on my stomach and we're trying so hard not to [D] fall asleep.
But [A] here we are on [Bm] this 18th floor balcony, we're both [F#m] flying.
[A] [F#m] [A]
[D] We [A] [Bm] [F#m]
[A] talked about moms [F#m] and dads, about family [A] pasts.
Getting to [Bm] know where we [F#m] came from, [A] our hearts were on [F#m] display for [Am] all to see.
I can't believe this [Bm] is happening [F#m] to me.
[A] And I raise my hand as if to show you that I was yours, that I was so yours for the taking.
I'm [Bm] still so yours [D] for the taking.
[A] And that's when I felt the wind [F#m] pick up.
I grabbed the rail while [D] choking up [A] these words to say.
And then [Bm] you kissed me.
Yeah, [D] I knew it from the start, [A] so my arms are open wide.
[Bm] And your head is on my stomach and we're trying so [D] hard not to fall asleep.
