CAPO 3
Intro: D G D G, D F#m G
Verse 1:
D G
I called you up, you were in bed,
D G
could barely make out the words that you said
D F#m G
But you wanted to see me instead, so I got dressed
D G D G
and I stepped out into the snow, and walked for a mile or so
D F#m G
Felt the rush of blood come from the cold, in my chest
Bm D Em G x2
Verse 2:
D G
Well you finally came to the door,
D G
and we talked for an hour or more
D F#m
Until I asked if you would stay up til four,
G
you said that's fine.
D G
But you said, "there's something I have to say,
D G
and I can't because I'm just so afraid"
D F#m G
And so I held you as you started to shake, that night
Pre-Chorus:
Bm D Em G
Oh my dear, I'll wait for you
Bm D Em G
Grace tonight will pull us through
Chorus:
D F#m
Until the tears have left your eyes
Bm G
Until the fear can sleep at night
D F#m
Until the demons that you're scared of
Bm G
Disappear inside
D F#m
Until this scale begins to crack
Bm E
And the weight falls from your back
Bm A D
Oh my dear, I'll keep you in my arms tonight
D G D G
Verse 3:
D G
You slowly lifted your head from your hands
D G
You said "I just don't think that you'll understand
D F#m
You'll never look at me that way again
G
if you knew what I did"
D G
And so your tears fell and melted the snow
D G
You told me secrets nobody had known
D F#m
But I never loved you more, even though
G
Now I know what you did
Pre-Chorus: (repeat)
Bm D Em G
Oh my dear, I'll wait for you
Bm D Em G
Grace tonight will pull us through
Chorus:
D F#m
Until the tears have left your eyes
Bm G
Until the fears can sleep at night
D F#m
Until the demons that you're scared of
Bm G
Disappear inside
D F#m
Until this scale begins to crack
Bm E
And the weight falls from your back
Bm A
Oh my dear, I'll keep you in my arms...
(repeat then end)
