Intro:  C Am (2x)

 C                      Am
Lying in a puddle of my own remorse when
   C                                         Am
A voice came through the heavens: “Get back  on that horse.”
     Dm                  G
'Cuz love comes easy at first, unknown, then
      Dm                 G                  C   Am  C  Am
To learn to tumble when you get thrown, oh yeah!


    C                              Am
You opened up the doors to your protected heart and
  C                           Am
 let a total stranger pick it all apart
    Dm                 G
But patience in the extreme with love
      Dm                          G           C   Am
Will bring you what you’ve been dreaming of, yeah!


       Am                  D
'Cuz black clouds only conceal the sun,
     Am                       D         G  Em  G
And just like that you’re the only one.


           C                              Am
No we’re skipping through the fire like a summer rain,
  C                          Am
Shielded by the aura of our shared remains.
Dm                  G
I’d much rather die in your arms then
Dm                 G
live without 'em around me first


   C                              Am
Remember when you found me I was spoken for,
      C                             Am
With tape around my mouth and lying on the floor
     Dm                      G
You propped me up and looked in my eyes
    Dm                 G              C   Am
And I saw freedom and fireflies, oh yeah!

        Am                           D
All the weight was lifted, all my strength returned,
      Am                      D          G  Em  G
The flies land on me but I'm not burned.


G                          D
Butterflies sleeping in a hurricane,
D                                   G
Peace is in your eyes while you’re giving birth.
G                               D
Waiting in the station for the mystery train,
    D                           G
To come and put a smile on the face in the earth.


    Am                        D
I’m sure that’s why you were sent to me,
     Am                 D               G  Em  G
That we together could set folks free!


          C                            Am
Now I’m swimming in the ocean that was once my tears,
   C                           Am
A hurricane of joy has swept away my fears,
Dm                           G
   I’ve built an ark for the purpose of
Dm                       G
   Floods of passion and   floods of love
Dm                       G
You can’t stop them and nor can I
Dm                            G          C
Gonna keep on going 'til the day we die.
