[C] [F] There's something about you [C] in moonlight, but your eyes [G] go so [F] well with the day
You won't let go [C] of your layers
[Am] But your power [G] can strip [F] me away
[Am] It's easier for us to [G] hide if you come out and so [C] will I
Promise that I'll meet you [F] halfway
Cuz [Am] I see every part of [G] you and I can tell you see me [C] too by the way that you say [E] my name
I [F] am an honest [C] man
[Em] Why [Am] can't you take my hand
I've got what [G] you've got, but I'm a safe [F] place to land.
I am an honest [C] man
[F]
You're so afraid [C] of tomorrow
[Am] So you build [C] your walls up [F] today
You won't believe that [C] you're ready, [Am] but I'd [G] never lead you astray

[C] [F] I know I've played with hearts [G] before, don't have the heart to play [E] with yours, I only swear to do the [Am] best I can
[F] Cuz when you put your trust in me, [E] how beautiful our love could be [Am] if I would [F] take a chance
