[C#]
[F#]
[C#] [G#]
[C#]
Yesterday, you came [A#m] to lift me [A#]
up
[F#] As light as straw and brittle as [C#] a bird
[D#m] Today, I weigh less than [A#m] a shadow [A#] on the wall
Just one [G#] more whisper of a voice unheard
[C#] Tomorrow, leave [A#m] the windows open
As [F#] fear grows, please hold me in your [C#] arms
Won't you [D#m] help me if you can?
[A#m] To shake this anger, I need [G#] your gentle hands
To keep me calm, cause I [C#] never thought I'd lose
[G#] I only thought I'd win
[A#m] I never dreamed I'd feel this [C#] [G#] far beneath my skin
I can't believe [F#] you love me
I never [C#] thought you'd come
[A#m]
I guess [C#] I misjudged love
Between [F#] a father [C#]
and [G#] his [C#] son
[Fm] [A#m] [F#]
[G#] [C#] Things we never said [A#m] come together
The [F#] hidden truth no longer haunting [C#] me
[D#m] Tonight, we touched on [A#m] things that were never spoken
That kind [G#] of understanding sets me free
Cause I [C#] never thought I'd lose
I [G#] only thought I'd win
[A#m] I never dreamed I'd feel this [G#] far beneath my skin
I can't [F#] believe you love me
I never [C#] thought you'd come
[A#m] I guess I [C#] misjudged love
Between a [F#] father [G#] and his [C#]
son
