[C] [G]
[Bm] [G]
[C] [D] [G]
Promise to [C] take me to
Before you went away
If [D] only for a [G] day
If things get real for me
Then my silence [Bm] solidifies
And through that hollow void
[C] Erases you, erases you
So I can feel it all
But if [G] I never feel again
At [Bm] least that nothingness
Will end the [C] painful dream
Of you and [D] me
If [G]
things get real for me [Bm] down here
Promise [C] to take me to
Before you went away
[D] If only for a [G] day
If things get real for me down [Bm] here
Promise to take me back to the tune we played
Before you went [D] away
[G] And if I listen [D] to the sound
[C] Sometimes I hear your smile
[D] And I breathe [G] your love
Yeah, if I listen to the sound
[C]
[D] [Em]
[C] For some stranger's [G] face
I have the courage or belief
To [E] trust this place
But I [Em] don't, [C]
cause it felt
[G] And I'm sure I felt your [B]
fingers through my hair
[C] [D] [G]
And if I listen [D] to the sound [C] of wine

And I breathe [G] your love
