[Verse]
D
I was nervous in the morning
            Bm
In a car of backseat drivers
F#m
With a handful of the stories
                                A
From the chapters we were start-ing
D
Every time I crossed the border
Bm
Where the water flows in cascades

F#m

D
You were coming with your sister
                          Bm
From your mother's in the valley
F#m
Where the caws of rooks and ravens
F#m
Are the only thing you hear
G
As you imagine yourself living with 
no
Phone or electrici-
D
-ty

        F#m
We were headed to the outpost
F#m
Where our friends had all assembled
G
To receive us in our glory
Where the trees lean for their 
Em
safety
     D
From the edge of the world
D
And the birds revolved around us
F#m
As the sea swallowed our
C#m F# E
vows

[Pre-chorus]
G
And after we were married we went to
 our
Em
White stone cottage and you
A
Took your simple dress off and
Your tears fell in my eyes as we 
     G
were over
-come with
                A
Wonder and with love
Continúa después del anuncio
Aaaa-round us

[Chorus]
D
You take me as I am
                     Bm
And you turn me into someone who 
could
F#m
Step right off this rock
                       G
And fly out across the ocean 'cause 
if
D
I were to die today
Bm
Well then it wasn't all a waste

F#m A

D
You take me as I am
                      Bm
For all my faults and problems
F#m
And you build me to withstand
                     A
Every gust and every gale, and if I
Em
Knew I was going to
Die, well I'd be satis-
A
-fied
'Cause we've shared this moment

[Verse]
D
On the first night of our future
We left the house in convoys
F#m
Aurora in the corner
                        A
Started sweeping up the stars, and 
we
D
Were talking all in whispers
Bm
For no reason we could think of
F#m
at all

F#m

D
As we clambered through the bracken
                     Bm
On our way up to the outcrop where
F#m
the wind shakes the gorse and the
Coast looks like a jigsaw piece
G
As the sun rose up around us
                  Em     E
All neon pink and purple and
F#
Gold

G A G F#

[Pre-chorus]
G
And way down below the clifftops
                     Em
The sea broke on the shoreline
A
Without hearing itself roar
Without knowing we were here 'cause 
it was
G    Bm
only doing
Em
What it was sup-
Gm
-posed to
   Em
As you

[Chorus]
D
You take me as I am
                     Bm
And you turn me into someone who 
could
F#m
Step right off this rock
                             D
And fly out across the ocean 'cause
If I were to die
Bm                              
Today well then it wasn't all a 
F#m
waste

F#m A

D
You take me as I am
                      Bm
For all my faults and problems and 
you
F#m
Build me to withstand
Every gust and every gale, and if I
Em
Knew I was going to
Die, well I'd be satis-

OoooOOoohh
D
You take me as I am

For all my faults and problems and 
you

Build me to withstand

Every gust and every gale, and if I
Em               A
Knew I was going to

Die

Oooohh because we've
Gm
Shared this
mo-ment

D
Once you were a stranger but I
Struggle to remember now I
F#m
Picture us as children and the years
             G
Before I met you on the first
D
Day of my life when the day
G
Broke like an antique
D
