[Db]
[Gb]
[Db] [Ab]
[Db]
Yesterday, you came [Bbm] to lift me [Bb]
up, [Gb] as light as straw and brittle as a [Db] bird.
[Ebm] Today, I weigh less [Bbm] than a shadow on the [Bb] wall, just one [Ab] more whisper of a voice unheard.
[Db] Tomorrow, leave [Bbm] the windows open.
[Gb] As fear grows, please hold me in your [Db] arms.
Won't you [Ebm] help me, if you can, [Bbm] to shake this anger?
I need your [Fm] gentle [Ab] hand to keep me calm, cause I [Db] never thought I'd lose.
[Ab] I only thought I'd win.
[Bbm] I never dreamed I'd feel
this [Ab] fire beneath my skin.
I can't believe [Gb] you love me.
I never [Db] thought you'd come.
[Bbm]
I guess [Db] I misjudged love
between [Gb] a father [Db]
and his son.
[Fm] [Bbm] [Gb]
[Ab] [Db] Things we never said [Bbm] come together.
[Gb] The hidden truth no longer haunting [Db] me.
[Ebm] Tonight, we touched on [Bbm] things that were never spoken.
That kind of [Ab] understanding sets me free.
Cause [Db] I never thought I'd lose.
[Ab] I only thought I'd win.
[Bbm] I never dreamed I'd feel [Ab] this fire beneath my skin.
I can't believe [Gb] you love me.
I never [Db] thought you'd come.
[Bbm] I guess I [Db] misjudged love between [Gb] a father [Ab] and [Db] his son.
