  My dear
                Bm
  This is my parade
                 G
  My happy ever after
                  D
  Only if you're here
A                     G
  When I'm lost and broken

 
               Bm
  Take me as I am

  Out here on my own
                   G
  I know I'm not alone

  And make it last forever
          D
  If you dare
                    Bm
  Ooh, we can run away
                    G
  Take the world together
               D
  Only if you care
A                      G
  With these words unspoken

  Make it better, you and me
                    G
  Give me one more try
                     D
  Before we say goodbye

  Right here in this moment

  Here forever
        A
  Everyday
