Verse 1: Do intro riff
G
And we said it would be funny
to keep me hanging in suspense
C9
Then I'd run over to your house
and I'd scale the chainlink fence
Em7
That borders your back yard and
then I'd climb through your window
C9
And I'd whisper that I love you
as you fall out of your clothes
G
And we'd lay there in the
darkness like the dream of you I had
C9
Where we captured all the
fireflies and knew what time we had
Em7
Could be counted on our fingertips
that almost made you cry
C9
You let me hold you tightly
as we said all our goodbyes
Refrain 1:
C9 Em7
May I say I loved you more
C9 Em7
May I say I loved you more
Interlude: C9
Verse 2:
G
And it must of been and hour
that I clutched you in my arms
C9
And I must have said the right
things because you instantly felt warm
Em7
And you heard my heart stop
beating and you wanted not to cry
C9
As your sympathetic whispers
they told a tale of bad goodbyes
G
And You swore you saw me laughing
and I swore I saw you smile
C9
And this time we've spent together
was meant to last us quite a while
Em7
As I take this piece of you with
me I'll carry to my grave
C9
Knowing that for someone you're
an angel sent to save
Refrain 2:
(Keep Breathing my angel
if you go down I go with you)
C9 Em7
May I saw I loved you more
(Keep Breathing
Just Keep Breathing)
(Keep Breathing my angel
if you go down I go with you)
C9 Em7
May I saw I loved you more
(Keep Breathing
Just Keep Breathing)

Bridge:
C9
Let's drink to
memories we shared
Em7
Down one to all
the hopes and cares
C9
Here's too for being
unaware that you're gone
Em7
Because before too
long you'll be a memory
C9
Let's drink to
memories we shared
before too long
you'll be a memory
Em7
Down one to all
the hopes and cares
Because before too
long you'll be a memory
C9
Here's too for being
unaware that you're gone
Because before too
long you'll be a memory
Em7
Because before too
long you'll be a memory
