[E]
From a sore root, dear,
[F#] I would jump if I knew [B] you'd catch me
[E]
Staring over the edge, [B] I can tell if you'd be here for me
I [A] close my eyes and make a wish, [G#m] turn out the lights [E] and take a breath
[D] Pray that when the wick is burnt, [A] you would say that it's all about [E] love
You were there when I [D] needed you
[A] You were there when my skies broke [E]
wide, wide open
You were there when I [D] needed you
[A] You were there when my skies [E] broke wide, wide open
But you were never [C#m]
here
[B]
[E] I remember you said
[F#] Your love was more than your [B]
good intention
[A] Empty boxes on the floor, [G#m] things I never [E] asked you for
[D] Pray that when the wick is burnt, [A] you would say that it's all [E] about love
You were there when I needed you

[F#] And I [D] can't see [A] from this star

You were there when my [E] skies broke wide, wide open
You were there when I needed [A] you
You were there when my skies broke [E]
