Lyrics

I (Dm)told her that I loved her, was (G)not sure if she heard.

The (C)roof was pret ty wind y and she (Am)did n’t say a word.

(Dm)Par ty dy ing down stairs, had (G)noth ing left to do.

Just (C)me, her (G)and the (Am)moon.

I said, “You’re on (Dm)fire, babe,”

then down came the (C)light ning on me.

Love can be (Dm)fright ’ning for (G)sure.

(C)All I know at the end of the day is you (F)want what you want and you say what you say and you (G)fol low your heart e ven though it ’ll break some (Dm)times.

(C)All I know at the end of the day is you (F)love who you love, there ain’t no oth er way.

If there’s (G)some thing I’ve learned from a mil lion mis takes; you’re the (Dm7)one that I want at the (F)end of the day.

(C)Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

You’re the (Dm7)one that I want at the (F)end of the day.

She

When the sun goes down I (Am)know that you and me and ev ’ry thing will be al right.

And when the cit y’s sleep ing, (G)you and I can stay a wake and keep on dream ing, you and I can stay a wake and keep on dream ing.

(C)All I know at the end of the day is you (F)want what you want and you say what you say and you (G)fol low your heart e ven though it ’ll break some (Dm)times.

(C)All I know at the end of the day is you (F)love who you love, there ain’t no oth er way.

If there’s (G)some thing I’ve learned from a mil lion mis takes; you’re the (Dm7)one that I want at the (F)end of the day.
