INTRO

VERSE 1
B                                  F#m            Emaj7
When I was younger I saw my daddy cry and curse at the wind
     B                                               F#m        Emaj7
He broke his own heart and I watched as he tried to re-assemble it
      B                                         F#m     Emaj7
And my mama swore that she would never let herself forget
     B                                        F#m
And that was the day that I promised I'd never sing of love 
          Emaj7
if it does not exist, but darling

CHORUS
B
You are the only exception
F#m       Emaj7
You are the only exception
B
You are the only exception
F#m       Emaj7         B
You are the only exception

VERSE 2
 B            F#m   Emaj7
Maybe I know somewhere deep in my soul that love never lasts
      B            F#m     Emaj7
And we've got to find other ways to make it alone or keep a straight face
       B        F#m   Emaj7
And I've always lived like this, keeping a comfortable distance
       B            F#m       Emaj7
And up until now I had sworn to myself that I'm content with loneliness
           Emaj7
Because none of it was ever worth the risk

CHORUS
B
You are the only exception
F#m      Emaj7
You are the only exception
B
You are the only exception
F#m      Emaj7      C#m
You are the only exception

BRIDGE
       C#m
I've got a tight grip on reality, but I can't 
    B                    F#
Let go of what's in front of me here
            C#m
I know you're leaving in the morning when you wake up
