(G5)You,

but (Csus2)come and take a look in side.

(G5)You

and (Csus2)ev ’ry sin gle lie,

but (G5)I

I failed you this time.

And it feels

(Dsus)like

to night,

I (C)can’t be lieve I’m (G)bro

(Dsus)ken

in side.

(C)Can’t you see that there’s (G)noth ing that I wan na do but (Em7)try to make it up to you, and it feels

(Em7)like

to night,

to night.

(G5)I

was wait ing

(Csus2)for the day you’d come a round.

(G5)I

but (Csus2)noth ing was all look I found.

(G5)From

you (Csus2)came in to my life

but (G5)you

I showed me what’s right.

And it feels

(Dsus)like

to night,

I (C)can’t be lieve I’m (G)bro

(Dsus)ken

in side.

(C)Can’t you see that there’s (G)noth ing that I wan na do but (Em7)try to make it up to you, and it feels

(Em7)like

I nev er felt like this be fore.

Just when I leave, I’m (D)back for more.

And in these ev er chang ing days, you’re the one thing (D)that re mains.

I could stay like this for ev er.

And it feels

To night.

To night.

’Cause there’s (G)noth ing that I wan na do but (Em7)try to make it up to you, and it feels

like

to night,

to night.
