Intro: G D/F# Cm7 Cadd9* x2
G D/F#
The dawn is breaking
Cm7 Cadd9*
a light shining through
G D/F#
you're barely waking
Cm7 Cadd9*
and I'm tangled up in you, yeah

G D/F#
I'm open, you're closed
Cm7 Cadd9
where I'll follow, you'll go
G D/F# Cm7
I worry I won't see your face
Cadd9
light up again
G D/F#
Even the best fall down sometimes
Cm7 Cadd9
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
G D/F#
Out of the doubt that fills my mind
Cm7 Cadd9
I somehow find, you and I collide
G D/F# Cm7 Cadd9
do do do do do...
G
I'm quiet, you know
you make a first impression
I've found I'm scared to know
I'm always on your mind
Even the best fall down sometimes
even the stars refuse to shine
out of the back you fall in time
I somehow find, you and I collide
