Verse 1:
      G   C         G    Em D
It is late and I am cold
          G   C             G   Em D
Nothing's changed except for the snow
          G
I've been waiting on an answer,
C                        G    Em D
Hoping I could call your bluff
          G
I've been giving second chances
C                    G         Em D C
Thinking maybe I gave too much


Bridge:
         Em
What you want from me
         D                              G
It's not something I could give you for free
    D     Em           C           D
And all I know in this life is you can't stop breathing


Chorus:
C            G
Whatever it takes
                    D         Em D C
Just tell me you'll stay with me forever
           G
Don't turn away
                    D
Just tell me you'll stay
       Em           D      C     Em              D
'Cause when we're together I see stars above the headlights
               Em      D       C
And they don't seem so far away
            G
Whatever it takes
                     D
Just tell me you'll stay
Whatever it takes
Whatever it takes

I am shamed and you are lost
        G  C                    G   Em D
We both ache for things we ain't got
      G
I was praying that you'd find me
C                          G   Em D
Teach me something I don't know
      G
I was praying that you'd find me
C                          G   Em D C
Praying that you'd guide me home
