 Grow with me 'til we're old, we will find a way to heal
 E5                    B5           F#5 
 The bruises that will appear, from choices long ago 
 E5             B5                  F#5
 Hold on to our love my dear, don't think its dead and done

 B                C#m              B               C#m          
 Running round in circles drinking whisky and your wine
              B                C#m               B        C#m
 To drown the sound of endless questions in your mind 
 B                C#m             B                 C#m
