Intro: Bm-Bsus2-G


VERSE:
	D	Em	   G
And I'd give up forever to touch you
	 Bm	       A           G
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
	   D	      Em	  G
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
      Bm	    A		  G
And I don't want to go home right now


VERSE:

And all I can taste is this moment
    Bm	      A		      G
And all I can breathe is your life

And sooner or later it's over
       Bm	     A	      G
I just don't want to miss you tonight


CHORUS:
      Bm	     A	      G
And I don't want the world to see me
	 Bm		  A	 G
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
     Bm		  A	     G
When everything's made to be broken
       Bm	   A	      G
I just want you to know who I am


VERSE:
	D		Em		 G
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
       Bm	 A	       G
Or the moment of truth in your lies
     D	        Em	       G
When everything feels like the movies
	  Bm		A	    G
Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive


CHORUS:
      Bm	     A	      G
And I don't want the world to see me
	 Bm		  A	 G
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand

I just want you to know who I am

[Originally, this is played on a guitar tuned to BDDDDD.  For simplicity’s sake, I’ve simply given the chords. The full tab can be found online if you want to be truly authentic. Thanks to Steve Jensen for the best standard tuning tab for this song that I’ve seen.]

 

Bm     Bsus2          G

 

         D                Em        G                        Bm                 A                G

And I’d give up forever to touch you, ‘cause I know that you feel me somehow.

                  D       Em                 G                        Bm            A                   G

You’re the closest to heaven that I’ll ever be and I don’t want to go home right now.

And all I could taste is this moment and all I can breathe is your life.

And sooner or later it’s over; I just don’t want to miss you tonight.

 

Bm     Bsus2          G  [2x]

 

CHORUS:

         Bm                  A            G                   Bm                    A                G

And I don't want the world to see me 'cause I don't think that they'd understand.

When everything's made to be broken, I just want you to know who I am.

 

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming or the moment of truth in your lies.

When everything feels like the movies, yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive.
