[E]
Well, you sure look good tonight I think I've come to see some [F#m] light
You're the one, hold on to me, be [E] kind to me You know the love that's good on you
And what you say and what you [F#m] do You're the one, hold on to me, be [E] kind to me
[B] I'm getting to the point, [E] it's never slowing down [B] A lot of things are slow, [E] but all the time I try
[D] [A] Now we just can't seem to [E] wipe the smile away [B] You give it to [F#m] me
[A] Give it up, I'm feeling [E] something beautiful [F#m] Learning that you're starting [E] to be suitable to [D] me
[A] Lucky that I found one [F#m] that I can't seem
[B] [E]
to love Can't seem to get enough of you
When you're away, I dream that [F#m] you're the one You're the one, hold on to me, [E] be kind to me
And so it never really ends You never hurt, so it never [F#m] meant
That I'm the one, hold on to me, [E] it's all I need
[B] What did I want, I had [E] enough, what do you want from me?
[B] Guess you gotta take your blinders [E] off so you can see
[D] [A] Let a butterfly fly to the [E] doors and hang on you [B] What did I do, [A] can't believe that this is [E] really happening
[F#m] All the hurtful days I'm [E] flying by the street [D] [A] Making all your fantasies [F#m] real, please
[A]
[E] We [A] could be in for some surprises [F#m] I know it, you know we [D] do
Before you [E] think of compromising Just realize it's only here for you
Yeah, sure, look good tonight I think I finally seem so [F#m] right
You're the one, hold on to me, [E] it's all I need
And so it never really ends You never hurt, so it never [F#m] meant
You're the one, hold on to me, [E] it's all I need
Getting
[B] it for bringing [E] out the best in me [B] When the world is white, it's [E] hard to see so [D] clearly
All my [A] life I wondered [E] would it come to me [B] [E] [B] [A] Can't believe that this is [E] really happening
[F#m] All the hurtful days I'm [E] flying by the street [D] [A] Making all your [F#m] fantasies real, please
What [B] did I want, I had [E] enough, what do you want from me?
[B] Guess you gotta take your blinders [E] off so you can see
[D] Never [A] goodbye, that [E] doesn't happen to you, [B] way [E] as [B] you [A] used to be
