(intro) A E Bm D (X2)
A E
Maybe it's been a little too long
F#m D
holdin' it in, trying to be strong.
A E
Funny the things we bottle up
F#m D
Come streaming out when you feel enough.
Bm E
There is a trust the cautious will lack
Bm E
and now that we've touched there's no holding back.
CHORUS
A E Bm D
I want to call out for love 'til I can't breathe.
A E Bm D
I want to stare at the truth 'til I can't see.
A E Bm D
I want to pour out my soul 'til I'm empty, empty
A E Bm D A E Bm D
Verse 2
When only flesh and bone remain
I'll hold you close then start again.
Feeling nothing but a sweet release
then the ghosts are gone from inside of me.
I've tried to fight it but what can I do?
There's something deeper that surrenders to you
CHORUS
Bridge:
F#m C#m
When I touch you, when I hear you
D A E
how can I doubt when every time I'm near you
CHORUS
(outro) A E Bm D A E Bm D
