[A] I close my eyes and I smile
Knowing [Bm] that everything is [A] alright to [F#m] the core
So close [D] that [E] door, is [B] this [Bm] happening?
[A] My breath is on [F#m] your hair
I'm [D] unaware [G] that you open [Bm] the blinds
And let the city [F#m] in, [A] God
You held [F#m] my hand and [D] we stand
[G] Just [A] taking [Bm] in everything
And [F#m] [D] I knew it from the start
[A] So my arms are open wide
[Bm] Your head is on my stomach
And we're, we're trying [D] so hard not to fall asleep
[A] Here we are, [Bm] on this 18th floor balcony
We're both [A] flying away
[Bm] So [A] we talk about mom and dad
About [D] family pasts
Just [F#m] getting [Bm] to know where we came [A] from
Our hearts were on display
For all [D] to see
I can't believe this [Bm] is happening to [A] me
And I raise my hand to [F#m] show you that I was yours
That [D] I was so yours for the taking
[Bm] I'm so yours for the [A] taking
And that's when I felt the wind pick up
I grabbed the rail while [D] choking up
These words to say [Bm] and then you kissed me
[D] I knew it from the start
[A] My arms are open wide
[Bm] Your head is on my stomach
And we're, we're trying so [D] hard not to fall asleep
[A] Here we are, [Bm] on this 18th floor balcony
We're both [A] flying away
[Dm]
[A] And I'll [E] try to sleep
[C#] To keep you [G] in my [Bm] dreams
Till I can bring you home [D] with me
I'll [B] try to sleep
And when I [A] do I'll keep you in [G] [Bm] my dreams
[E] [Bm]
[A] I
[D] [A] [Bm]
[A]
[D] [A] [Bm]
[D] knew it from the start
[C#m] So my [A] arms are open [E] wide
And your [Bm] head is on my stomach
And we're, we're trying so [D] hard not to fall asleep
So [C#m] here [A] we are
[E] On this [Bm] 18th floor balcony
[A] Yeah, [D] I knew it from the start
[C#m] So my [A] arms are open wide
[E] And your [Bm] head is on my stomach
And we're, [D] we're not going to sleep
[A] Here we are
[Bm] On this 18th floor balcony
We're both [A] flying away
[F#m] Yeah, [E] [D] yeah, yeah
[Bm] [A] [F#m]
[D] [Bm]
