[Verse 1]
             A
Give me your hands
            A6
Show me the door
         A7
I cannot stand
        A6
To wait anymore
         A
Somebody said
               A6
Be what you'll be
            A7               A6          A
We could be old and cold and dead on the sea
D              A/C#                E         B/D#
But I love you more than words can say
D                 A/C#             A           A
I can't count the reasons I should stay


[Verse 2]
             A
Give me some rope
          A6
Tie me to dream
            A7
Give me the hope
              A6
To run out of steam
         A
Somebody said
            A6
It could be here
            A7                 A6        A
We could be roped up, tied up, dead in a year
D                 A/C#             E         B/D#
I can't count the reasons I should stay
D               A/C#           A               A
One by one they all just fade away


[Bridge]
                  G                D
I'm tired of the  wait and see's
                  A                A
I'm tired of that part of me
                  G                D
That makes up a   perfect lie
                  A                A
To keep us        between
                  G                D
But hours turn    into days
                  A                A
So watch what you throw away
                  G                D
And be here to    recognize
                  E                E
There's           another way

[Verse 3]
             A
Give me some rope
          A6
Tie me to dream
            A7
Give me the hope
              A6
To run out of steam
         A
Somebody said
            A6
It could be here
            A7                 A6        A
We could be roped up, tied up, dead in a year
D              A/C#                E         B/D#
But I love you more than words can say
D                 A/C#             E         B/D#
I can't count the reasons I should stay
D               A/C#           E             B/D#
One by one they all just fade away
D              A/C#                A           A
But I love you more than words can say
