The Words

          E      B       F#
All of the lights land on you
                E      B         
The rest of the world fades from 
F#
view
               E      B    D      
And all of the love I see please, 
F#      D       B      F#
please say you feel it too
               E       B     F#
And all of the noise I hear inside
             E        B         F#
Restless and loud, unspoken and wild
                 E       B
And all that you need to say
           D       F#
To make it all go away
            D        B        F#
Is that you feel the same way too

[Chorus]
      F#                       
And I know the scariest part is 
         B
letting go
Cause love is a ghost you can’t 
C#
control
I promise you the truth can’t hurt 
   G#m
us now
            B         C#          
So let the words slip out of your 
F#
mouth

               E           B      
And all of the stairs that lead me
    F#
 to you
               E      B           
And all of the hell I had to walk 
F#
through
      E        B                   
But I wouldn’t trade a day for the 
D         F#
chance to say
    D          B         F#
My love I’m in love with you

[Chorus]
      F#                       
And I know the scariest part is 
         B
letting go
Cause love is a ghost you can’t 
C#
control
I promise you the truth can’t hurt 
   G#m
us now
            B         C#          
So let the words slip out of your

[Verse]
D#m                D
I know that we’re both afraid
                 F#
We both made the same mistakes
        G#m                      
An open heart is an open wound to 
    D#m
you
                     D
And in the wind of a heavy choice
           F#
Love has a quiet voice
          G#m                   
Still you mind, now I’m yours to 
 B
choose

[Chorus/Outro]
      F#                       
And I know the scariest part is 
         B
letting go
Let my love be the light that guides
     C#
 you home
      F#                       
And I know the scariest part is 
         B
letting go
Cause love is a ghost you can’t 
C#
control
I promise you the truth can’t hurt 
   G#m
us now
            B         C#          
So let the words slip out of your 
F#
mouth
