(intro) Bm   G   D   G

(verso 1)
Bm                        G
I tried to paint you a picture, the colors were all wrong
D                         G
Black and white didn't fit ya, and all along
Bm                     G
You were shaded with patience, and strokes of everything
D                       G
That i need just to make it, but i can see that

(pré-refrão)
Em                    A
Lord knows i failed you time and again
Em                    A
But you and me are alright

(refrão)
Bm          G            D               A/G
We won't say our goodbyes, you know it's better that way
Bm            G            D             A/G
We won't break we won't die, it's just a moment of change
Bm         G           D        A/G
All we are, all we are, is everything that's right
Bm          G            D          A/G  C9   A
All we need, all we need, a lover's alibi

(verso 2) (mesmos acordes do verso 1)
I walked a minute in your shoes, they never would have fit
I figured there's nothing to lose, i need to get
Some perspective on these words, before i write them down
You're an island and my ship has run aground

(pré-refrão)

(refrão)

C9
And every single day that i can breathe
A
You change my philosophy
    D                          A/G
I'm never gonna let you pass me by
