C Am
Weren't there when I needed you most
G C
Feels like a lifetime I couldn't let go
C Am
Said, "Col, let's have one day alone
G
Wherever you wanna go
C
That's where we'll go"
C Am
One day to share love and revoke
G C
To settle silence, seek penance, say woes
C Am
Ran to the waves as they broke
G C
Biting cold thrashed across our ankle bones
[Pre-Chorus]
F Am G
Irish dreams by the sea
C G
Where she waltzes from me
Am G
Will you smile at my face
C
When you leave?
[Chorus]
C Am G
And I'll fall back into you, like I always do
C Am G
And I'll fall back into you, like I always do
[Verse 2]
C Am
You dared me and I dared you so
G C
Ran 'til we gave, 'til our pace was imposed
C Am
Beach town, my white shirt pulled low
G C
See to my skin, cotton hanging and soaked
C Am
Sun beamed on your face and hopes
G C
Maybe one last time I'll see you as gold
[Pre-Chorus]
Am G
Irish dreams by the sea
C G
Where she waltzes from me
Am G
Will you smile at my face
C
When you leave?
[Chorus]
C Am G
And I'll fall back into you, like I always do
C Am G
And I'll fall back into you, like I always do
[Verse 3]
Am G
But now it's too late for this all
C
You're on your way out, I wish I had known
Am G
Held hands in your hospital cloak
C
Said, "What have we done now?"
Eyes burning holes
Am G
Wrinkled skin held your brittle bones
C
Mouth open, eyes closed in unison slow
Am G
I said "sorry" as I held you close
C
The Asbury lighthouse is where I'll let go
C F G
Is where I'll let go
C F G
Is where I'll let go
C F G
Is where I'll let go
[Chorus]
C F G
I'll fall back into you, like I always do
C F G
I'll fall back into you, like I always do
[Outro]
C F G
I'll fall back into you, like I always do
C F G
I'll fall back into you, like I always do
N.C.
Like I always do...
